The Black Nazarene, with the cross resting on his shoulder, will make its way along the roads of Manila, through the city’s heat and traffic and a sea of people who believe in the miraculous powers of the dark-skinned image.

A mass will be celebrated by Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle at the Quirino Grandstand before the religious statue traces a path from Luneta to the Quiapo Church.

Take part in the mass and watch the start of the procession below.

Throughout the day, follow the procession by visiting #Rstream, Rappler’s news video and photo stream. – Rappler.com
