00:00 More than a million devotees have joined the translation of the Black Nazarene in Quiapo, Manila.
00:07 For more events there, let's talk to our co-host, Bea Bernardo, live.
00:13 Bea.
00:14 Dominic, despite the calls of the authorities not to worship,
00:21 our fellow countrymen who are devotees were not stopped from worshipping the Black Nazarene.
00:27 Their dedication to the return of the translation is evident.
00:56 Despite the calls of the authorities,
00:59 JJ did not become a hurdle to be able to worship the Black Nazarene.
01:03 He was successful in receiving head and body vows.
01:08 He said that his participation as a devotee in the translation is incomplete
01:12 if he cannot worship the Black Nazarene.
01:14 Some devotees tried to worship the Black Nazarene,
01:17 but unlike JJ, they were defeated by Romeo,
01:20 who has been a devotee of the Black Nazarene for almost five decades.
01:23 In 2019, he was able to worship the Black Nazarene.
01:27 He was able to prove the Black Nazarene's true worth,
01:30 so he tried to worship the Black Nazarene again this year.
01:33 He did not become a hurdle to be a woman,
01:36 but he was able to be a role model for men to worship the Black Nazarene.
01:40 He said that when he was holding the Black Nazarene in his palm,
01:43 it was like he was being poured with cold water.
01:46 According to the Manila Police District,
01:48 more than half a million devotees are joining the translation.
01:52 But the authorities are expecting that this number will increase
01:55 until the translation is ready for the Church.
01:57 On the other hand, the MPD said that the translation 2024 is still safe
02:03 because of the speed of the procession.
02:05 The authorities are expecting that the procession will arrive earlier
02:11 in Quezon Boulevard.
02:13 Dominic, the Church and the authorities are preparing
02:18 because the last sign that we received said that the Black Nazarene
02:22 is already on the Quezon Bridge.
02:25 So, it will arrive earlier, 2 to 3 hours earlier than expected.
02:31 The first projection of the Church said that the procession
02:34 will take 16 to 24 hours or 22 hours.
02:40 But in the last projection that they gave,
02:43 it said that the procession will take 13 to 14 hours.
02:48 The people here are really excited
02:52 that the Black Nazarene will be able to enter the vicinity of the Church.
02:56 Let's go back to you, Dominic.
02:58 Beya, to the devotees you mentioned,
03:00 how sad or how sad are their feelings,
03:04 their experiences in the translation this year
03:07 compared to the past years?
03:11 Dominic, most of the devotees who came here
03:15 and joined the procession are very excited
03:17 because they haven't experienced or joined the procession
03:24 for almost two years because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
03:27 This year, they told themselves that they will go to the Church
03:32 and join the procession because they missed the excitement
03:35 and their prayer in the Black Nazarene.
03:38 Dominic?
03:40 Beya, will those who did not join the procession this year
03:42 still be able to join the procession next year?
03:45 Dominic, actually, the authorities are not recommending
03:49 the procession to the procession
03:51 because it is possible for them to get hurt
03:54 if they really force them to join the procession.
03:57 But our fellow countrymen,
03:59 the passion in their hearts to join the procession,
04:01 they will really do everything they can to join the procession.
04:05 But Dominic, the authorities are not recommending this anymore.
04:08 But our fellow countrymen cannot stop them
04:11 because this is their devotion.
04:13 Dominic?
04:14 Alright. Thank you very much, Beya Bernardo.
