More than 8,000 people (teenagers, young people, families and religious men and women from parishes and schools of the Augustinian Family all over Spain) will travel to Madrid in the coming days to take part in the Youth Vigil on Saturday, June 6, in the Plaza de Lima, and in the Corpus Christi Mass on Sunday, June 7, in the Plaza de Cibeles.

In Huelva, the Augustinian community is made up of 17 nuns who run the Santa María de Gracia School. The Augustinian community in Seville has 19 nuns who, besides prayer, devote themselves to baking and to making liturgical vestments.
