On Saturday, July 27, in the Cathedral of San Isidoro, priests and Catholics from the diocese and other communities of Holguín, presided over by Bishop Emilio Aranguren Echeverría, paid homage to Pedro Poveda on his feast day and thanked God for the Pontifical Approval of the Teresian Association in 1924. The event consisted of a Eucharist followed by a cultural gala participated by several groups.


After the major celebrations made last January 11 (in Cochabamba) and on May 4 (in La Paz) of 2024, members of the Teresian Association in Bolivia continue to gather friends, ex-alumni, families and collaborators to commemorate the 100 years of pontifical approval of the Teresian Association.


The Mass was presided by the Bishop of Getafe, Ginés García Beltrán, on the feast of St Pedro Poveda on 28 July 2024. It was held in Santa María de Los Negrales (Madrid, Spain), the place where the remains of the founder of the Teresian Association rest. Following the Mass, the singer-songwriter Luis Guitarra gave a recital with the theme “Sal de tu tierra” (Go forth from your homeland) as the underlying message.
