The celebration of the V Centenary of the Birth of Santa Teresa had a deep religious significance. Only from the religious nuance can we understand the importance of this ephemeris. It shows how important it is to join a religious event with the different administrations, both public and private, to highlight the importance of what is celebrated and to get a large number of people to approach the figure that is commemorated.
