During this time the Christians commemorate the life, death and
resurrection of Jesus Christ. Here in Pakil there are different religious activities held
the whole week. The main activity takes place on Good Friday where there is a procession
that goes around the whole town with a fixed route that leads back to the church. At
around 3 o' clock in the afternoon the people goes to the church for the procession.There
are different statues or poons , what they are normally called, that makes up the
procession.
The biggest and the heaviest of them all is the Santo Entierro
which houses the life size image of Christ. It takes about 20 people just to
carry it. Its like a casket but the sides are made of
glass so you could see the sculpture of Christ inside.
