Crucifixion marks Good Friday in Phillippines
A Philippine fish vendor was nailed to a cross for a final time today, fulfilling his vow to go through the annual Lenten ritual 15 times to give thanks for his mother’s recovery from tuberculosis.
Heresito Sangalang, 45, was among about a dozen Filipinos, including one woman, who were nailed to crosses in bloody rituals in San Pedro Cutud to mark Good Friday penance and seek answers to prayers.
