Devotees arrived early to secure a place at the front of the queue for the traditional "Pahalik" to the Image of Jesus Nazareno at the Quirino Grandstand in Manila on January 7.
Many spent hours waiting in prayer and reflection, hoping to briefly touch the revered image as an expression of faith, gratitude, and personal petitions.
The orderly lines formed ahead of the main rites as part of heightened crowd management measures for the annual Traslacion, one of the country’s largest religious gatherings. (via Mark Balmores | MB)
