Holy Week is an important time of the year for all Christians to commemorate the sacrifices, death of Jesus Christ on the cross, and His resurrection. These also remind them of God's love.
Since the Philippines is known as a Catholic country, this religious event is widely observed by most Filipinos as part of a tradition.
Many Christian cultures have different traditions such as special services, reenactments of Christ's life, His arrest, and crucifixion.
However, Filipino migrants have different means to commemorate this season. The famous in Victoria is the Way of the Cross in Ta Pinu Shrine in Bacchus Marsh.
