Catholic devotees reach up to the carriage carrying the statue of Black Nazarene during an annual procession in a downtown Quiapo in Manila January 9, 2008. Tens of thousands of devotees, many of them barefoot, thronged the capital on Wednesday to snatch a glimpse of a centuries old black statue of Jesus Christ during its annual parade. The wooden Black Nazarene, carved in Mexico and brought to the Philippine capital in the early 17th century, is cherished by Catholics, who believe it performs miracles.
