Devotees eager touch the image of black nazarene

PATIENT THRONG. Unmindful of the long queue, devotees wait for their turn to kiss or wipe the foot of the replica of the Black Nazarene at the Quirino Grandstand in Manila on Sunday (Jan. 8, 2023), the eve of the feast. The traditional kissing of the statue remained prohibited due to health reasons. (PNA photo by Avito Dalan)
