00:00 Tomorrow, January 9, at the Black Nazarene Festival, thousands of devotees will gather from all over the country.

00:11 Before that, let's listen to the story of faith and gratitude of the devotees of the Black Nazarene.

00:20 Let's watch this.

00:26 Every January 9, many devotees of the beloved Nazarene pray for the translation.

00:34 In its return this year after the pandemic,

00:38 different stories of miracles, truths, and prayers are repeated.

00:43 These are stories that are part of the Filipino faith.

00:48 The Black Nazarene is an image of Jesus Christ known in the Philippines as the beloved Nazarene, or in Spanish, our Father Jesus Nazarene.

00:59 Many people pray for the translation of the works of the Nazarene every year that are held in Manila,

01:05 and also invited by devotees from other places in the Philippines.

01:10 It started when I was 14 years old, when I prayed for the translation of the works of the Nazarene.

01:18 After that, the group of the beloved Nazarene started in Silang, Cavite.

01:23 It continued until now.

01:26 Our faith in the Nazarene started when we were invited by our relatives.

01:33 Since 1985, we have been doing this. We are the ones who introduced the name of the Kursilitas in Balangay Central,

01:42 which is called the Devote Kursilistas. Until now, we continue to do devotional work.

01:48 It started when my husband joined us.

01:51 Then, I was invited, and our children were also invited to join us in the prayer of the beloved Nazarene.

01:58 The image of the Nazarene is not chosen by age. It is usually inherited to the family and to the next generation.

02:07 I was joined by my father in his devotional work.

02:12 Until now, I still worship him. I reached his age.

02:17 I continue to pray for him.

02:20 My life and my health are still improving. All my neighbors and my companions have been with us for a long time.

02:29 Despite the hardship, fatigue, and hardship, what is the continuation of their prayers to the whole Nazarene?

02:36 We have no other request to the beloved Nazarene, but the continuous guidance to my whole family.

02:44 First of all, to all my brothers and sisters, to all my fellowmen who are suffering,

02:52 who are in need, and who have feelings in life.

02:55 Everyone should have peace and quiet, especially those who are leading our country.

03:03 Let us give them a chance to be peaceful. No leader can be as good as the one who is good.

03:09 The strength of each of us, of my parents, of our loved ones in life,

03:15 and of course, the stronger community that has been with us since then until now,

03:19 will continue to be with us for almost four decades this year.

03:23 Their only small sacrifice in the feast of the image is compared to the guidance and listening of the Nazarene to their prayers.

03:33 Prayer, thanksgiving, and asking for forgiveness, these are just a few of the continuous prayers of the devotees

03:40 in their first prayer to the whole Nazarene.

03:43 I am very thankful because He gave me all that I asked for.

03:49 I am very, very thankful. As long as I am alive, it is all in Him.

03:55 The translation is a proof of the strong faith and unity of the Filipinos.
