After two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the visit to the Basilica of St. Teresa, on Holy Wednesday, for the adoration of the Nazarene, with its subsequent procession, took place once again. On Holy Wednesday, hundreds of Venezuelan believers dressed in purple attend the Basilica of Santa Teresa in Caracas to venerate and pay their promises to the Nazarene of St. Paul.
