The procession passed through the main streets of the neighborhood: Ginés Cartagena, Capitán Cortés, Avenida de la Castellana, Velázquez, Acacias, Goya, Jardines and ended again in the temple and, outside the steps, the legionaries who shone with their light. At all times, they guarded the image of the Eucharist.
