Rev. Michael G. Woost, auxiliary bishop of Cleveland, led the prayers before the procession. Then, he and other clergy walked over the Carpets of Holy Week - Alfombras de Semana Santa - to begin.

The procession included other priests, men carrying a large statue of the body of Jesus, people carrying a statue of the Sorrowful Mother, a man dressed as Jesus carrying a cross, Roman Centurions, Saint Veronica and more. They marched through the neighborhoods to St. Colman Church where they processed in for a service. We counted about 1,000 people in the Church. The final stop was at St. Michael the Archangel Church at Scranton and Clark in Cleveland (not shown in the video).
