Palm vendors


These young vendors in front of Quiapo Church in Manila sell what signify the palm branches that the crowds waved at Jesus while he entered Jerusalem. And these young vendors’ joyful mood derived from their play in between their selling tasks reflected the great time of celebration a week before Jesus made his journey to the cross and resurrection.
  For Christians, Palm Sunday ushers in the Holy Week which concludes on Easter Sunday. (PDN PHOTO BY ERIC ISAAC)

youth rally

This scene was recently portrayed at Recto Avenue and Morayta Street in Manila’s university belt area. It was a street-as-stage performance of a contemporary version of the passion of Christ by the children of the internal refugees of Quezon. Entitled Kalbaryo ng Mamamayan, the play depicted Juan and Juana de la Cruz as the suffering servants of the people; representing all those who are truth-loving, peace-loving, and patriotic sons and daughters of Mariang Bayan.
