A symbolic ceremony is held in churches on Holy Tuesday. The ten virgins are represented by scribes, children, or soldiers. They are divided into two groups: the wise and the foolish. The candles burning in their hands symbolize the light of faith. The candles that go out during the ceremony symbolize the Gospel episode when the oil in the lamps of five of the virgins runs out. This year, judo athletes wore T-shirts to present the Gospel story of Holy Tuesday in the Mother Cathedral.
