Authorities are still looking for Jay Slater, who vanished in a mountainous area of the island on Monday.
Jay Slater, from Oswaldtwistle in Lancashire, went missing last week after attending a music festival on the Spanish island.
The apprentice bricklayer's friends and family have said he had earlier left the group he travelled with in the tourist hotspot of Playa de las Americas, on the south of the island. The search parties for Mr Slater were reportedly smaller on Saturday compared to previous days. Only a handful of emergency workers were seen in Masca and the surrounding areas.Rescue teams, accompanied by sniffer dogs, set off on a steep gravel track at Rural de Teno Park on Saturday.
"It will be a normal service and we will offer our prayers for Jay and give an opportunity for people to leave messages for him and light candles," he said. Lucy Law, thought to have been the last person to speak to him, said he told her in their call that he had missed a bus and decided to walk the 10-hour journey home but was lost, needed water and his phone was on 1% battery.A remote and wild national park, it is a world away from Los Cristianos and Playa de las Americas, the party town holiday resorts of the island’s south coast.
