AT ONE point in time, it used to be nailed to the cross for the passion play on Good Friday, adds Desmond.
According to him, although the passion play has been discontinued, every Good Friday, the sacred sculpture is taken out of its resting place, washed, dressed and placed on an ornamental wooden catafalque for veneration.
