💨 Abstract
On Thursday, hundreds of thousands of barefoot Filipino devotees participated in a grand annual procession of a centuries-old statue of Jesus Christ, known as the Black Nazarene. This event, one of the world's largest displays of Catholic devotion, took place in Manila, the capital of the Philippines. Almost 80% of Filipinos are Roman Catholic, a legacy of Spanish colonization. Devotees believe that touching the statue brings blessings and healing.
