With the Rules of 1987 an exciting new way, that the archicofrades wanted to move towards the penitence brotherhood, starts. The first step was having a new image of Jesus Christ replacing the primitive crucified.

In that moment, the Youth of the Brotherhood had an important role, promoting a Nazarene  as the new image, this Nazarene is executed by a young student of Arts (our brother José Manuel Bonilla Cornejo) and financed by the weekly collection of papers sold by weight.

In March in 1988 the new Cristo de la Misión was blessed and celebrating a Via Crucis on the Immaculate Heart of Mary float the Friday of Sorrows. This event was gaining popularity in the neighborhood and, step by step, in the whole city.

The Virgen del Amparo had her procession in the Aurora Rosary in October. The Blessed Sacrament in the procession of Disabled Persons in Pascua Florida. And the Immaculate Heart of Mary in its Glory Procession in June (on Saturday after the Corpus Christi).

It is a time when the fruits of the changes introduced in the Brotherhood are being experienced: more worship, more brothers and sisters, more Brotherhood life. Because of that, new needs are appeared (own spaces for that life and for the safekeeping of the new brotherhood belongings, for example) and new concerns related with becoming into a penitence brotherhood, as our ancestors had dreamed for the greatest engrossment of the devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Successive Governing Boards struggle to achieve a Brotherhood House (which is obtained with the municipal assignment of a locale in 1997, in an agreement signed by the remembered Alberto Jiménez Becerril) and the creation of a new mystery float in which all the penitential procession images could procession. In addition, the holy women would join in accompanying the Cristo de la Misión on the road to Calvary. This project has been the biggest project of the Brotherhood from 1992, when it makes its first procession, to nowadays, when, with the premiere of the grilles, the float has been concluded.

Finally, after several years, December 25th of 2007, Cardinal Amigo Vallejo approved the Brotherhood Rules joining together its three facets: Glory Brotherhood, Sacramental Brotherhood and Penitence Brotherhood. Closing this interval era between those old brotherhoods and the Brotherhood that always aspired to be in the neighborhood of Heliopolis.
