Before the digital premiere on acontra+, regional preview screenings offered a first look at the new material. On Friday, October 23, the Seminario Metropolitano San Atón in Badajoz hosted a preview of the season’s opening episode for roughly 300 attendees, including priests, catechists, religion teachers, and local fans, as reported by Extremadura 7Dias. Similar regional projections took place in Córdoba at the Centro de La Trinidad, as noted by ODISUR.
