An impassioned Angeline Quinto took part in the male-dominated procession of the Black Nazarene in Manila on Monday.

In an Instagram post on Tuesday, the Kapamilya singer shared her memorable experience as she struggled to touch the Black Nazarene image together with thousands of other devotees.

“Maraming salamat po, [Mahal] na Poong Nazareno (Thank you, Beloved Nazarene),” she captioned her Instagram video.

In an interview with ABS-CBN in 2013, Quinto revealed that being a follower of the Black Nazarene changed her life in many ways. Because of her faith, her mother was cured of her illness, Quinto claimed.

She said then, “Araw-araw po akong pumupunta sa Heart Center, sa ospital ng mama ko, talagang doon po ako nagdadasal araw-araw at ayun, awa po ng Diyos, talagang may himala po si Poong Nazareno kasi nagkaroon ng pangalawang buhay si mama ko (I would go to the Heart Center every day to visit my mom and pray every day. With His mercy, the Lord Nazarene bestowed a miracle and my mom was given a second chance to live).”

She added: “Kung nagkakaroon po ng problema ngayon, doon din po ako nagpupunta talaga at nagiging maayos naman ang lahat  (If I ever encounter a problem, I would just go to Him and everything is well again).”  Gianna Francesca Catolico
