00:00At the same time as the Wata Wata Festival in San Juan City,
00:03the patron saint of the city, St. John the Baptist, is officially declaring his birthday today.
00:09So, let's go and meet BAM on the spot.
00:18Good morning! The sun is shining, but the people of San Juan are still wet
00:23from their traditional Wata Wata Festival.
00:30The color of the city is getting lighter as the shrines are starting their procession
00:34from different parts of San Juan.
00:36This is the beginning of the Wata Wata Festival dedicated to St. John the Baptist.
00:41The movement of the floats is a sign for the rain.
00:44Three firetrucks of the city are the first to pour water.
00:48In the past, 50 firetrucks were used on the track,
00:51but because of the effect of El Niño, the city was able to save water.
00:55One of the participants is very happy, like John Patrick Pancho, who brought a water gun.
01:00He is very much approved, like Carla Caban, of the happiness of the land.
01:04Today, the St. John the Baptist Church of San Juan City is also being elevated from the parish level.
01:09It is now up as an archdiocesan shrine.
01:12This church is now 130 years old.
01:15The patron saint of the city, St. John the Baptist, is also officially declaring his birthday today.
01:19That's why this morning, before dawn, there was a dark mass here in the church.
01:24Susan Cirillo is already waiting for the mass.
01:27She also brought her clothes because she is ready for the rain.
01:30Here is the statement of the residents we talked to.
01:36We are happy because this is a great blessing for us here in St. John the Baptist.
01:42Yes, that's why we brought our suitcases.
01:45We are really ready.
01:47We are happy, especially on Sundays.
01:50We are very happy because the firemen are almost shooting people.
01:55But you still have something to bring, right?
01:57Yes, I still have something.
01:58We are still fighting so that we can go home.
02:01My rate is 1 to 10.
02:0311.
02:10For those who are still confused, this is still okay.
02:12It's a beautiful afternoon here in the St. John the Baptist Church of San Juan City.
02:15At 5 p.m., there is a mass in the church.
02:18Here is our update from San Juan City.
