The solemn vesting or “maringal na pagbibihis” of the new official image of the Santo Niño de Pandacan was held at the Manila Cathedral in Intramuros, Manila last Saturday, January 16, a day before the feast of the Santo Nino which was observed last Sunday, January 17.
The new icon was made from the original wooden image of the parish. The broken piece of the finger of the Child Jesus which was spared from the fire that broke out in July, 2020, was kept safe by the parish. The original finger, according to the Manila Cathedral, will be incorporated into the new official image.
