Evangelio: XIX Domingo del tiempo ordinario. [Mt 14, 22-33]

Después de que la gente se hubo saciado, Jesús apremió a sus discípulos a que subieran a la barca y se le adelantaran a la otra orilla, mientras él despedía a la gente.

Y después de despedir a la gente subió al monte a solas para orar. Llegada la noche estaba allí solo.

Mientras tanto la barca iba ya muy lejos de tierra, sacudida por las olas, porque el viento era contrario. A la cuarta vela de la noche se les acercó Jesús andando sobre el mar. Los discípulos, viéndole andar sobre el agua, se asustaron y gritaron de miedo, diciendo que era un fantasma.

Jesús les dijo enseguida:
«Ánimo, soy yo, no tengáis miedo!».
Pedro le contestó:
«Señor, si eres tú, mándame ir a ti sobre el agua».

Él le dijo:
«Ven».
Pedro bajó de la barca y echó a andar sobre el agua acercándose a Jesús; pero, al sentir la fuerza del viento, le entró miedo, empezó a hundirse y gritó:
«Señor, sálvame».

Enseguida Jesús extendió la mano, lo agarró y le dijo:
«Hombre de poca fe! ¿Por qué has dudado?».
En cuanto subieron a la barca amainó el viento. Los de la barca se postraron ante él diciendo:
«Realmente eres Hijo de Dios».

Proceso de restauración del trono de la Virgen de las Aguas.

El proceso de conservación de la Santísima Virgen de las Aguas de la Iglesia Colegial del Divino Salvador continúa con la restauración del tejido de su trono.

La intervención incluye trabajos de aspirado y limpieza especializada, fijación de desgarros y tintado de hilos y soportes para favorecer su integración cromática, respetando en todo momento sus valores históricos y artísticos.

Estos trabajos forman parte de un proyecto más amplio de conservación impulsado por el Cabildo Catedral para proteger el patrimonio artístico y devocional vinculado a una de las advocaciones marianas más antiguas del Divino Salvador.

These works form part of a broader conservation project promoted by the Cathedral Chapter to protect the artistic and devotional heritage associated with one of the oldest Marian devotions of the Divine Saviour.
