Feast Of The Black Nazarene

Tweet

Tomorrow January 9 is the much awaited Feast of the Black Nazarene. Devotees from all over the country and from all walks of life flock to Quiapo Church Manila to join the grand procession. To accomodate more people who want to go near or touch and kiss the Nazarene, the image is now transferred to Quirino Grandstand at Luneta Park. Series of activities would occur including the Divine Healing. Meanwhile a mass every hour is being conducted at the Quiapo church. Tomorrow morning the grand procession will take place. This is the biggest and the longest procession of the country. I have high regards for this devotees who are barefooted joining the procession, expressing their faith and thanking the Nazarene for answering their prayers of healing, orderly and peaceful lives. I didn't experience attending the procession but I do hear mass at Quiapo Church on Fridays and even on the Nazarene's feast day. I felt better everytime I participate hearing mass. I have prayers answered too. The strong faith being shown by the people is very timely for us Filipinos who are very much praying hard to God to spare our country for disasters and tragedies and for a peaceful and abundant living in 2010. Friends, have you experience participating in a grand procession like this? Kindly share. Thanks...
