The last First Friday for 2020

Police officers patrol and implement distancing rules to prevent the spread of COVID-19 as devotees attend the First Friday mass at the Quiapo Church in Manila. The mass marks the start of devotional activities leading to the annual Traslacion, or procession of the image of the Black Nazarene, which is celebrated in January. Authorities earlier announced that the Traslacion in 2021 is canceled because of the continuing pandemic.
