00:00 Cheska, let's hear the story of the devotees who are waiting for the arrival of Nazareno Janzel in Quiapo.
00:07 Yes, how do you feel after a few years, the transition is back?
00:13 They are in Quiapo, Loya Janzel. How are you guys?
00:17 Hey guys, good morning!
00:20 Good morning to you all in the studio, Cheska and Ms. Lynn.
00:23 I'm here with Janzel.
00:25 We are here in the middle of Quezon Boulevard, outside of Quiapo Church
00:30 where the devotees are still praying to be able to attend and experience the Holy Mass this morning
00:37 even though it's still raining.
00:39 The people are still praying, right Janzel?
00:42 I'm telling you, since 3am, before 3am, many people are already coming here.
00:47 And earlier when we went, the streets were already closed.
00:51 So it's only 5am, it's hard to enter.
00:54 So for those who want to come here, let's get ready to walk a long way to get here.
01:01 You need to be ready, you can only experience it on the way.
01:05 And you're right Janzel, many people are coming here now,
01:09 they are really waiting for the arrival of Nazareno who will come from Quirino, Grand Sand.
01:14 Okay Janzel, before I ask you, have you experienced this?
01:19 Actually, this is my first time, Brother Loy.
01:21 Here?
01:22 Yes, and it's also very overwhelming that so many people are coming here
01:27 and the whole Nazareno is devoted.
01:30 Well, to give you an information also,
01:32 after 3 long years, you are the only ones who are returning to the trust station of the whole Nazareno.
01:36 So we expect that there will be a lot of people, millions of people who are devoted to the whole Nazareno.
01:42 Me too, it's the same for Janzel, it's my first time to experience this,
01:47 but there are so many people and you can really see the devotion from the whole Nazareno.
01:52 Remember, dear brothers and sisters, we are not allowed to go up to the stairs now,
01:55 but we can still hold the umbrellas.
01:57 And we are not allowed to kiss.
01:58 Yes, anyway.
01:59 We are still following the rules and regulations.
02:01 Anyway, we have here with us one of the devotees of the whole Nazareno,
02:05 Mackie Reyes, who is already 12 years.
02:08 Yes, she is already 12 years, the devotee of the whole Nazareno.
02:10 Good morning Mackie.
02:11 Good morning to you.
02:13 Yes, we heard that you are already 12 years of devotee.
02:16 Why did you choose to be a devotee of the whole Nazareno?
02:20 I believe that you will give everything you ask for, as long as you give your life and your savings.
02:27 You really need to combine your own work, not just your faith.
02:32 Okay Mackie, you mentioned that you are already 12 years.
02:36 Why did you have your faith for so long?
02:39 Aside from the things that you have given, what else will you give as a devotee?
02:48 Actually, I have one thing that I asked Him to give me, which is what I studied before.
02:56 I was really into studying, and I asked Him to give me that.
03:02 The high grades.
03:03 Yes, the high grades, so that I can pass again.
03:06 He gave me that, and I was really thankful to Him.
03:09 Since then, I continued to study until now.
03:13 So, that became the proof that He will really give you your prayers.
03:19 I always ask Him for my family's well-being, especially for me, because I need to help my family when I finish my studies.
03:29 So, aside from studying, you always ask for your family's well-being?
03:35 Yes, I do.
03:36 Do you have specific prayers for us in 2024?
03:40 Yes, I do.
03:42 Actually, I am continuing my studies now.
03:45 I ask Him to guide me in my studies so that I can finish it by next year.
03:52 What time did you arrive here, Ms. Mackie?
03:55 Actually, at 3 am.
03:58 Why so early?
04:00 Because we were waiting for the Nazareno to come out.
04:04 Who are your family members?
04:06 They are my friends.
04:08 And your friends are both devotees?
04:11 Yes, they are all devotees.
04:13 What time will you stay here?
04:16 We will wait for the Nazareno to come out, and we will go around Bonqueaco.
04:24 Alright, Ms. Mackie, thank you for your time.
04:26 Thank you.
04:27 And we will pray for you to be fulfilled.
04:29 We will pray for you to be fulfilled this year in the whole Nazareno.
04:32 Thank you so much.
04:33 Thank you.
04:34 Cheska, there are so many devotees who are not prepared for the day of the Nazareno.
04:39 Yes, even though there are so many people, it is still raining.
04:44 Yes, they are prepared to show their faith and gratitude for the blessings of God.
04:51 And there are so many.
04:52 We will know more about the story of devotion live today.
04:55 We are with Nakaloy and Jenzel.
04:58 Hey guys, good morning again.
05:00 How are you?
05:02 Good morning.
05:03 Hello, good morning here from Quezon Boulevard, outside of Quezon Church.
05:09 Our hearts are still full of joy.
05:12 We have talked to some of the devotees of the Nazareno.
05:16 And here, there is still a holy mass that is being held.
05:21 Millions of devotees are attending the Nazareno.
05:25 It will last until the end of the year.
05:29 I heard that there will be around 30 mass today.
05:34 Actually, right now, Nakaloy, it is getting less crowded.
05:39 But we expect that it will be back to normal soon.
05:41 Because since the early morning, when we arrived, it was already crowded.
05:45 And since earlier, the crowd here is getting bigger.
05:49 Again, we are here in Quezon Boulevard, outside of Quezon Church.
05:54 We have invited someone else, we are talking to one of the devotees, Father Ricardo.
06:00 Let's go to the middle.
06:01 Good morning, Father.
06:03 Father is still wearing his shoes.
06:07 Father, how many years have you been a devotee of the Nazareno?
06:11 Since 1979.
06:13 Since 1979, almost 40 plus years.
06:17 45, almost 40.
06:20 Yes.
06:21 That's four decades of faith in the Nazareno.
06:25 Yes, because the three years, it was not a pandemic.
06:29 It was a pandemic because of the three years, that's why we are back.
06:35 How are you feeling?
06:37 How are you feeling?
06:39 And we are back now.
06:41 After three years.
06:42 Yes, it was a pandemic.
06:44 I am thankful that this translation is back.
06:48 I am happy because I have faith in Him while I am still alive.
06:54 In your four decades, what is your faith?
06:58 I have had good things in my life.
07:02 What did you have?
07:04 I have had a long life.
07:06 My family is doing well.
07:09 Even if I have a little problem with myself, they forgive me.
07:15 That's good.
07:16 But now, 2024, this translation is back after three years.
07:21 Do you have a specific prayer now for the Nazareno?
07:27 What is that? Can you share it with us?
07:30 I am praying that God will give me a long life and our country will be beautiful.
07:37 Above all, our country will be peaceful.
07:41 Not only for yourself, but for the whole Philippines.
07:47 I have a question, since you are still in 1979, have you ever been beaten?
07:57 Yes, just once. I have never been beaten again.
08:00 Because they have a big ban on us.
08:03 We are following their protocol.
08:06 But how was your climb up the stairs?
08:11 Before I went up there, I went to the back and they helped me.
08:17 I was given a ride.
08:19 Now, it's time for me to not be beaten again.
08:21 Why didn't you get beaten again?
08:23 If you were helped the first time?
08:25 Because it's prohibited.
08:27 We are just following the rules.
08:31 It's enough that you are here and you are part of the Nazareno's translation.
08:38 Thank you very much, Father.
08:41 God bless you. I hope your prayers will be answered.
08:44 We will pray.
08:45 Let's be careful. We have a lot of blood today.
08:49 Thank you very much, Father Ricardo.
08:51 Let's continue talking to the other devotees of the Nazareno here at the Church of the Holy See.
08:58 [Silence]
