Tips

The Marian title Our Lady is part of invocations of the Mother of God, the name of miraculous images and Marian feasts, as well as the name of religious orders, societies of apostolic life, brotherhoods, pious associations, institutions, organizations and establishments that are under the patronage of the Mother of God. Many churches with the patronage of the Mother of God Mary bear the title Our Lady or the popular Liebfrauen in their name.

The work on the Guadelorce river at the beginning of the last century caused the population of El Chorro to multiply. The workers and their families needed to be given education and spiritual support. This is how the church and school of the Daughters of Mercy were founded, on the initiative of the engineer Rafael Benjumea, who was appointed Count of Guadalhorce by King Alfonso XIII. Today, the religious life of the Chorro neighbourhood is closely linked to that of the parish of Encarnación in the centre of the town, since both the Daughters of Mercy school and the parish ceased to exist in 1970. Here, the great moments in the lives of families are still celebrated, and every year on 27 November the feast of the Virgin of the Miraculous Medal is held.
