“Happy Palm Sunday, let us pray to Our Lady of Montevergine with trust, so that the smile of peace may once again blossom on the face of the world.” This was the message from Abbot Riccardo Luca Guariglia, who celebrated Holy Mass on Palm Sunday. The Benedictine Community warmly welcomed everybody as the Sanctuary reopened after months of closure. Many pilgrims reached the Sanctuary of Mamma Schiavona on foot and by funicular. Currently, the funicular is the solely solution to attain the Sanctuary. The provincial highway remains to be present process security works and isn’t open to vehicles or buses. On holidays, car visitors may also be closed alongside the various route, permitting passage just for service and emergency autos. Many pilgrims, as custom dictates, will proceed to climb on foot alongside the trails ranging from Mercogliano and Ospedaletto d’Alpinolo.
