It is traditional in the villages of Mallorca the celebration of the famous procession del Encuentro, (a meeting, in the first hour of the morning). The ritual, with slight variations, is always the same: the image of the Virgin Mary comes to the passage of the figure of the risen Jesus following an established route. The overwhelming moment, is when they both meet to the tune of the peal of bells, firecrackers, and sometimes, pigeon loose. Later, the procession goes to the church where the trade of Glory is celebrated.
