Donation of four coffins by the family of En Gregorio Molina Ribera to the Parish of Banyeres de Mariola – Party Program 2021
The 15 June 2019 the heirs of En Gregorio Molina Ribera and Na Magdalena Albero Albero made a donation, with a document signed by the rector of our parish, the representatives of the family and the presidents of the Confraternity of Santa Llúcia and the Confraternity of Sant Jordi, of four chapels for liturgical use in the Parish of Santa Maria de Banyeres de Mariola. These hand embroidered pieces, and considered as authentic artistic jewels, they are made with the colors of the different liturgical times of the year: red, blanc, green and purple. They are profusely decorated and ornamented with embroidery of different nuanced colors making flourishes, multi-colored borders and rockeries highlighted with gold thread.
The prominent figure of the four chasubles (from the back since, to be prior to the reform of the Second Vatican Council, the celebrant celebrated the Eucharist facing the Altar) represents the image of our Patron Saint George on horseback, throwing the dragon to defend the princess, being the whole decorative ensemble orchestrated in the center and around the representation of the cross which is highlighted by all the decoration.
A gesture by the relatives of En Gregorio Molina Ribera that once again highlights and reminds us, once more, the great love that is·lustre son of our people had and knew how to transmit to his descendants towards Banyeres de Mariola and towards our Patrón Sant Jordi.
