00:07 James?
00:09 Good morning, dear viewers of Itim na Nazareno here in Quiapo, Manila.
00:17 Because today is the first Friday of June, and of course,
00:21 Quiapo Day is also happening.
00:24 The stories of the devotees are different,
00:26 but they are all here to thank God after fulfilling their duty.
00:29 Their prayers were answered by God.
00:32 Jelene has been a devotee of Itim na Nazareno for almost four decades.
00:39 That's why every Friday, she really devotes time to the worship service.
00:43 She gave all my prayers.
00:45 Nothing is impossible.
00:46 For my children, of course, I don't want them to get sick.
00:51 And for my grandchildren...
00:53 The image of Nazareno is clearly visible on Jelene's right arm.
00:57 She says it means a lot to her.
00:59 She put it there after she got sick.
01:02 Because I got better from the illness,
01:05 that's why I really gave my prayers.

01:11 Semelina is from Navotas.
01:13 Every Friday, she really goes to worship with her husband.
01:17 Especially during the pandemic, we were not allowed to go.
01:21 But when we were young, we went to worship.
01:23 We thought it was just a normal thing.
01:25 There's a little blessing.
01:27 I'm thankful because we were able to survive.
01:31 My children, my husband, he got sick.
01:38 He survived.
