Call for Increased Attention to Monte Following Religious Festivities

In a recent event that drew significant local participation, councilors Luís Filipe Santos and Jorge Afonso Freitas have called for greater political focus on the Monte parish, a picturesque area known for its historical and cultural significance. The call comes in the wake of the annual religious procession dedicated to the Patron Saint of Monte, which saw a remarkable turnout from the local community.

The procession, celebrated with deep faith and devotion, was praised for its organization and the strong sense of community spirit it fostered. The councilors extended their gratitude to the Parish of Monte and the numerous volunteers who contributed to the success of the event. They described the celebration as 'marvelous,' highlighting its role in bringing the community together.

Councilors Santos and Freitas used the occasion to urge for continuous political attention to the needs of Monte throughout the year, beyond the festivities. They pointed out that such events should also serve as reminders of the ongoing challenges faced by the parish.

The Monte parish, located in the hills above Funchal, is a popular destination for both residents and tourists, offering stunning views and cultural landmarks. However, it also faces several infrastructural and developmental challenges that require sustained attention from local authorities.
