Devotees touch the centuries-old image of the Nuestra Señora de la Salud upon its arrival at the Manila Cathedral yesterday.MANILA, Philippines — The centuries-old image of the Nuestra Señora de la Salud , believed to be miraculous, arrived at the Manila Cathedral yesterday.
The Manila Cathedral in Intramuros would serve as the temporary home of the original 28-inch image of the Nuestra Señora de la Salud until the morning of Oct. 7.
