“The discipline of the devotees is truly remarkable. They expressed their devotion by coming even at great sacrifice but they are very considerate of the protocols and very patient indeed,” he said in an interview Sunday.
“It cannot be said that the devotees of Nazareno are unruly,” added Pabillo.
Photos on social media showed devotees who attended Mass both inside and outside the church wearing face masks and face shields while maintaining physical distancing in heed of the health protocols.
Devotees were also cited by Quiapo Church Rector Monsignor Hernando Coronel for their discipline.
Devotees, mostly clad in yellow and maroon shirts, trooped to the Quiapo Church in Manila to attend the Masses in honor of the Black Nazarene on Saturday despite threat posed by the coronavirus pandemic.
