Literally following the footsteps of Jesus Christ. Every Good Friday, for 23 years now since 1986, Ruben Enaje made it a practice to commemorate the life of Jesus and thank God for his “second life” by being nailed in the cross.San Pedro Cutud in the City of San Fernando, Pampanga became famous worldwide because of the hundreds of flagellants and the nailing in the cross as a re-enactment of the death of Jesus Christ.
Every year, thousands of tourists and international media flock to San Pedro Cutud to witness the event. Enaje is just one of the many faithful who practice this penance. But this year he is doubly happy because he will be the lead actor to the Senakulo or the re-enactment drama. He will play Jesus Christ.
Although crucifixion is not part of the ecclesiastical calendar and being discouraged by the Catholic Church along with the flagellants, it has become part of the Holy Week tradition in Pampanga
