00:00 One of the highlights of the slow, long and winding Black Nazarene procession is the traditional
00:06 15-minute pause for the glimpse or peek, otherwise known as the La Mirada Ordungao by Our Lady
00:12 of Del Carmen de San Sebastián, at the balcony of the San Sebastián Church, looking on the
00:18 Traslación below on the street.
00:21 And earlier this afternoon, an apparition manifested itself that devotees and those
00:26 in the procession swear by that our Alan Francisco details in this report live.
00:33 Alan?
00:34 William, before the Black Nazarene image arrived inside the Queapuy Church, the Ordungao took
00:42 place first.
00:45 It was almost 3 o'clock in the afternoon when the image of Our Lady of Del Carmen de
00:50 San Sebastián appeared at the balcony of Minor Basilica of San Sebastián for the glimpse
00:58 or viewing Ordungao on the Traslación down on the street.
00:59 Ordungao, William, is part of the Traslación, where it is the meeting and viewing of the
01:04 image of Del Carmen de San Sebastián with the Black Nazarene.
01:08 Even before the traditional Ordungao took place, many devotees gathered in front of
01:12 the Church of San Sebastián in Plaza del Carmen.
01:16 The crowd of devotees even grew as the Traslación of the Black Nazarene approached San Sebastián
01:21 Basilica at the beginning of the visit and a prayer was offered.
01:26 The devotees sang the Lord's Prayer all together.
01:29 The last time the Ordungao took place was in 2020, before the COVID-19 pandemic broke
01:34 out two months later today.
01:36 Meanwhile, after my coverage of the Ordungao, I went directly right here to Queapuy, where
01:41 I interviewed some devotees who joined the Traslación.
01:47 What are your feelings?
01:49 It's very sad.
01:50 There are so many people.
01:51 But you're happy?
01:52 Yes, I'm happy.
01:53 Because?
01:54 Because of the Black Nazarene.
01:57 It's still early in the morning.
01:59 It's still early in the morning?
02:00 Yes.
02:01 Many people died.
02:02 What was your secret?
02:04 I just have faith in our Lord, the Black Nazarene.
02:08 What are your feelings?
02:09 It's very good.
02:10 It's very good to feel that I'm reaching, that I'm able to cross my heart.
02:14 I hope that I can join the police force and give good deeds to my parents and to my children.
02:20 And that's the latest live here from the Queapuy Church.
02:25 William.
02:26 Yes, thank you.
