00:00May the Lord Jesus Christ be with us.
00:09Good morning, dear friends and family,
00:13to join the procession of the Lord Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Manila today.
00:17This is the news brought to you by James Agustin and Bam Alegre.
00:21They will unite their intentions from Casimiro, Las Pinas, just like their unity of faith.
00:30This is the procession leading to Rino Granstown for the translation.
00:33This is part of their every year prayer.
00:36This is for my children and my family, so that their feelings will be lost.
00:42From 8th Avenue in Caloocan, San Luis de los Santos, and those who believe from San Roque Cathedral,
00:49they are all tired, but they feel a different kind of strength as they descend to MacArthur Bridge.
00:54It's an epidemic, sir.
00:56I hope that our epidemics will end soon.
01:01Anna-Lisa Zapata also took part in a picnic on a bench while her companions are waiting.
01:06Their children are also excited because they believe that family bonding is important
01:11in joining the procession of the Lord Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
01:13What strength do we have as a family?
01:17From Makati City, Lucas and Luisa have been devoted to Nazareno for almost four decades.
01:24They are still in line at 4 p.m. for the translation to Rino Granstown.
01:28They are still at the end of the line in South Road.
01:31This is just a small sacrifice for their faith.
01:35While I'm alive, my life will increase.
01:38That's my prayer.
01:40And to my grandchildren, especially to my wife.
01:43The 58-day celebration of St. Luisa's Day is twice as long as the feast of St. Nazareno.
01:50We are thankful because God gave us a long life, my children and grandchildren.
01:58Because of the long line, devotees who are in line cannot avoid
02:03quickly receiving medical tips, like Sonia, who was also in line for several hours.
02:09At the age of 18, her faith deepened after she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in May of last year.
02:18I am thankful that my life has increased again.
02:25That's why I want to go back there.
02:28Other devotees have their own beds and tents,
02:32like Ms. Liliana's family from Las Pinas.
02:35She is with her four children and grandchildren.
02:38This is already part of passing on to the next generation the devotion to St. Nazareno.
02:43For the safety of my children and grandchildren,
02:46and also my grandchildren,
02:48this is important to me.
02:50Just like I am a solo parent, they need guidance.
02:55Ms. Armando and her children are senior citizens from Dasmariñas, Cavite.
03:02This is a special day because she also celebrated her birthday.
03:06I will try my best to join the water.
03:09I am already 60 years old.
03:12I am still strong, sir.
03:14I am still with you.
03:17My whole family, my siblings, my grandchildren,
03:21give them strength while they are still alive.
