Fillipino children sit next to a statue
Fillipino children sit next to a statue of Jesus Christ holding a cross, during the procession of the 'Black Nazarene', a revered Christian icon, in central Manila on January 9, 2010. Hundreds of thousands of people prayed for relief from natural disasters as they turned out to participate in an annual festival centred on a black icon of a cross-bearing Christ which many in the predominantly Catholic Philippines believe has miraculous powers. The life-sized sculpture of Jesus bearing a cross is said to have been carved in Mexico and brought to the Philippines by Augustinian missionaries in the early 17th century during Spain's galleon trade.
