5: Encourage alone

It is a belief that is still deeply rooted in the peasant masses. His devotion dates from the first colonizers. They represent her as a woman who suffers torments in purgatory and travels the roads with her hands tied with chains.

The legend that runs from mouth to mouth is nothing like the one quoted in Sacred Scripture in relation to the "thirst for Christ".


They say that in Jerusalem they had women destined to give drink to those who sacrificed on the cross. On the afternoon of Good Friday, he had to climb Calvary to a young woman: Celestina Abnegada. From the amphora he gave Dimas and Gesta to drink, the two thieves who accompanied Jesus. He despised the savior and that is why He condemned her to suffer the thirst and the constant heat of the flames of Purgatory.
