PASSION SUNDAY PROCESSION, APRIL 1926. To this day, the ancient tradition of the Passion Play continues in San Jose Five Wounds Church. Portuguese parishioners bear statues of Christ’s five wounds around the city block and up the church steps. The sights of the sorrowful and wounded statues amid purple drapes, along with the sounds of the deep drum beats, take marching participants back in time. (Courtesy Vieira family.)
