I have a great joy to preside, for the first time, the solemn Mass celebrated on the feast of St. George Reliquia. I congratulate you on this feast of the relic because clearly underlines the religious dimension of our Moors and Christians.
San Jorge is a Saint, and distinguished by their own merits, He has entered the world of legend. It is a kind of celestial knight, righter of wrongs, protector of the innocent and unjustly oppressed and persecuted. I wish and pray to St. George's bañerenses are always adorned with such noble and Christian virtues.
