The Lord of Miracles

Celebration at Mailin, Argentina.

Our Lord of miracles in Mailin, Argentina

Señor de los Milagros de Mailín (The Lord of Miracles). Every year, 40 days after Easter, pilgrims come from all over Argentina to worship the Lord of Miracles.
It is said that late in the 18th century, a wooden cross was found in a field, with the image of Jesus' body painted on it. Unable to move the cross, the local people decided to erect a hermitage there. The pagan celebrations include the visit of the sanctuary, a mass, and several musical and artistic events that last around three days. There is another celebration, called Fiesta Chica (Small Celebration) that takes place in September.
In 1983, a sanctuary was constructed in the place to hold the cross, where 31 murals were painted by Julio Carreras. In 2003, a new altar was constructed
