Bishop Geoffrey and Father Mark concelebrated Mass in a chapel at the back of the main church.

The Black Madonna is in the area above the altar, in the "window" above the arch.

Barbastro

Barbastro is the birthplace of Saint Josemaria. We detoured through there on the way to El Grado. The main church has no celebration of Saint Josemaria, although there is a new church on the outskirts of town which is named after him. However, when we visited that church Mass was in progress.

A few members of Group N take time out for a coffee in Barbastro
