Sad and annoyed, this is how the brothers and also the people of Madrid feel who, if the coronavirus pandemic did not exist, would have seen the Christ of the Gypsies process this Holy Wednesday through the streets of Madrid. This Holy Wednesday, if there were no restrictions due to the coronavirus, the procession of the Christ of the Gypsies would have left in the afternoon, since it is the first great procession of Madrid in Holy Week. But this year the steps stay in the temple. They have placed them on the altar and have been visited throughout the day. At 20:00 and a special mass has been celebrated. The brother brothers have already decorated the steps, but they have to give the last details and put up the fences to prevent crowds. In the temple they have taken all kinds of security measures to avoid crowds: "we have the capacity limitation as in all churches, entrance and exit doors and gel to enter," says Cabrera. The image represents the Nazarene going to Calvary carrying his Cross.
