<p>Kapamilya actor McCoy de Leon expressed deep gratitude after he was able to kiss the cross of the image of the Black Nazarene during the annual Traslacion.</p><p>On Instagram, McCoy shared that he had just come from a taping when he decided to join the procession. &quot;NAKAHALIK AKO SA KRUS!!! Nung una akala ko hindi na ako aasa na aabot dahil natapos ako ng 2am sa taping. Sa susunod na taon nalang ako babawi kaya bumili nalang ako ng mga panyo tsaka tshirt para syempre sa baby ko,&quot; he relayed.</p><p>He went on: &quot;Dumaan nalang ako ng Quiapo para magdasal silipin kung ano meron sa loob, hindi pwede pumasok basta basta kaya hindi ko na pinilit. Iba rin ang pakiramdam pag taimtim lang tapos may tunog ng simbahan.&quot;</p><p>He was supposed to go home after but he felt restless, as if something was missing.  &quot;Pauwi ako hindi ako mapakali paikot ikot sa paligid ng Quiapo na parang may kulang. Kaya nagdesisyon ako na hanapin siya, bahala na kung ano ang mangyrari. Baka hindi na ganto sa mga susunod na taon,&quot; the actor recounted.</p><div><br/></div><div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-8" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DTTawdEE2c9/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=439&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A8%2C%22os%22%3A1113807.199999988%2C%22ls%22%3A243657.09999999404%2C%22le%22%3A243930.5%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="1293" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-8" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><p>Eventually, he spotted the procession again and, with the help of fellow devotees, he was able to get closer. &quot;Muli ko siyang nakita ulit palapit ng palapit. Hanggang tinulungan ako ng mga kapatid (lalo na tong kapatid ko na to si Johnny Najera). Sobrang sarap sa pakiramdam at NAKAHALIK AKO SA KRUS NIYA. Poong Nazareno, hindi kita susukuan tulad ng hindi mo pagsuko sa akin,&quot; he said.</p><p>This year’s Traslacion lasted nearly 31 hours, beginning at 4:00 a.m. on January 9 and ending with the return of the Black Nazarene to Quiapo Church at 10:50 a.m. on Saturday, January 10.</p><p>Last year, McCoy also visited the Quiapo church during the Translacion. &quot;Muli ako’y nagpapasalamat sayo,&quot; he wrote on Instagram at that time.</p><p>Back in January 2019, McCoy shared via Instagram that his devotion to the Black Nazarene began through his father, Mark de Leon.</p>
