Netizen Using Candle on Cellphone During Procession After Forgetting to Bring One Goes Viral

A netizen attending a procession during the holy week goes viral after using a candle inside his cellphone after forgetting to bring one.

Many Filipinos are naturally religious and have a deep faith in God. Perhaps it was delivered by the Spaniards, who brought Christianity 500 years ago. This is where various beliefs and forms of worship originated, particularly during Holy Week.

From Palm Sunday until Jesus’ Resurrection Day, the Catholic church in the Philippines celebrates with style. Although times have changed, Filipinos’ customary rituals for meditation and memory of Jesus Christ’s suffering remain. Due to COVID-19, there were also two years without processions, prayers, readings, or greetings, yet people’s faith remained unchanged.

The netizen was observed utilizing a candle within his cellphone rather than the genuine melting candle. She uses the digital candle after forgetting to bring one, according to the post.
