Watch the largest Catholic display in the Philippines

Millions of devotees in the Philippine capital Manila flooded the streets to celebrate the annual Feast of the Black Nazarene on January 9, 2024. During the country’s biggest display of Catholic piety, worshippers walked in a procession behind a cart pulling a centuries-old statue of Jesus Christ, that some believe has healing powers. It was the first time the parade has been held since 2020, when the Covid-19 pandemic forced officials to drastically downsize the event. It was cancelled altogether from 2021-2023.
