By BBN Staff: Worldwide, Christians gather to celebrate Holy Week beginning with Psalm Sunday then going into Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
In Belize, Christians in Benque Viejo del Carmen engage in a complete re-enactment of the Last Supper, the Stations of the Cross and the Final Procession.
Last night, the re-enactment of the Last Supper culminated into a Sacramental Procession in Benque Viejo.
This morning at 10, the re-enactment of the Stations of the Cross began at John Paul 11 Junior College.
There is also a full-day display of sawdust tapestries on the streets of Benque. The tapestries are used as the carpets for the highly anticipated funeral procession entitled “ El Santo Entierro”. The display begins at 3am and ends at 5pm.
The final procession is scheduled to begin at 6 pm tonight at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Benque Viejo.
