00:00 This week, one of the churches that was visited was the Kamay Ni Jesus Healing Church in Lucban, Quezon.
00:06 Aside from being a beautiful place, many devotees are praying for the healing of their souls.
00:11 Let's find out the stories of faith and faith in the Kamay Ni Jesus Healing Church.
00:17 How are you, John Jensel and Sean?
00:19 Good morning! Good morning!
00:26 Shira and Caloy, good morning! We are here at the Kamay Ni Jesus Healing Church in Lucban, Quezon
00:33 where every week, many devotees come here.
00:37 Earlier, Jensel and I visited the Healing Mass here at 6am, led by Fr. Joey Falier.
00:43 Another thing to remember here is the 300 steps that you need to climb to see the 50-foot statue of the Risen Christ.
00:50 Yes, this pilgrimage is 5 hectares long, including the 300 climb steps.
00:56 Before we get to the statue of the Risen Christ,
01:00 each floor is explained or tells the stories of Jesus' journey at the Station of the Cross.
01:07 And now, many devotees are visiting the church to climb up here.
01:13 We have a fellow who is climbing up here to the Kamay Ni Jesus. What is your name?
01:20 Good morning!
01:21 Renato Puri.
01:22 Good morning, Sir Renato! Do you visit this place every year?
01:26 If I have a holiday, I come here every year. But I only come here four times a year.
01:35 Four times a year?
01:36 Because if there are too many of us, I might not be able to do it.
01:42 Why? Do you feel any pain?
01:44 I'm a polio victim.
01:45 Oh, a polio victim.
01:47 I have a weak stomach.
01:49 It's good that you can climb the 300 steps.
01:52 Yes, with the help of my arm.
01:54 There are rails that you can use to hold on to.
01:58 Where are you from?
02:00 I'm from Ibaan, Batangas.
02:02 Batangas.
02:04 What are your wishes when you come here?
02:09 I pray that God will give me a strong body and that He will give my children a good future.
02:17 Thank you very much. I hope you can safely reach the top.
02:23 Shawn, how are you?
02:25 I'm here with one of the devotees who is going to the Healing Mass.
02:29 This is Nanny Lenny. Good morning, Nanny Lenny.
02:32 How long have you been coming here?
02:35 I've been a volunteer here in the hands of Jesus for 16 years.
02:39 And you go to the Healing Mass.
02:42 Yes, every Wednesday and Saturday.
02:44 Every Wednesday and Saturday, not just the Holy Week, but the Healing Mass?
02:47 Yes.
02:48 So, since you go to the Healing Mass, what were your feelings before?
02:52 I was in a heart attack. I had two heart surgeries.
02:57 In 2018, I had an open heart bypass. I had four surgeries.
03:02 Now, I'm okay.
03:05 That's a lot.
03:06 Yes.
03:07 How was your family at that time? You had a lot of illnesses.
03:11 We were really down at that time. We didn't have money for my surgery
03:16 because we needed 1.3 million for my open heart.
03:20 That's a lot.
03:21 But with God's mercy, Father Joey, spiritually,
03:25 Father Joey was instrumental in healing people who needed help.
03:31 I thank Father Joey a lot.
03:33 He was instrumental in healing people who needed healing from their illness.
03:40 Tell us about your journey when you went to the Mass.
03:44 How did you see that your health was improving?
03:48 How was that?
03:49 Every time Father Joey would say the procession of the Blessed Sacrament,
03:54 I would cry. I don't know what it was.
03:57 I would cry, get cold, and sweat.
04:00 That's when I felt my coming.
04:03 Now, I'm 100% full. I don't feel any pain anymore.
04:11 I'm blessed. Thank you, thank you, Lord.
04:15 I heard that you are also helping other people to get better.
04:19 Yes, yes.
04:20 Are you a volunteer now?
04:21 Yes, I've been a volunteer for 16 years.
04:23 Thank you very much.
04:24 Now, let's go to Jenzel to talk about the Healing Mass.
04:28 We are with Father Joseph Alier, the founder and administrator of Healing Church
04:44 and he will give us a few reminders for those who will be visiting this Holy Week.
04:48 Good morning, Father.
04:49 Welcome, Jenzel.
04:50 We are happy to be here in Punanghirid
04:55 to give information to people about our schedule.
05:00 Our schedule is full.
05:03 Father, I have a question.
05:04 How many people are we expecting to visit this Holy Week?
05:09 Just to give you a history, 2.2 million in one year with restrictions.
05:13 So, our projection is 4.4 million will come because there are no restrictions.
05:19 So, our volunteer is about 1,000, our police is 150,
05:25 and all government officials, we asked for help from LGU, barangay,
05:30 to help make the very meaningful celebration of Holy Week.
05:36 Okay. What are our activities?
05:38 What time can they come here? How early?
05:42 We are given at 6 in the morning, it's already open,
05:46 and on Holy Thursday, it's open 24 hours.
05:50 And tomorrow, our mass on Holy Thursday is at 5 in the afternoon,
05:57 celebration of the Last Supper, and it's open to visitors.
06:02 And we have a walkway, Jenzel.
06:05 Our walkway is in Lucena City, 25 kilometers.
06:10 And do you know how many people are there?
06:12 500,000 to 700,000 people are walking.
06:16 I joined them last year.
06:18 It's a crowd of people, an ocean of people,
06:23 who are rosarying, praying, and they will come here on Holy Friday.
06:28 And it's good that you can cover that, but it's full.
06:32 The space you see, you won't see any occupied space.
06:37 It's an occupied space because it's full of people.
06:41 It's full of people. Thank you very much, Father.
06:44 And to all the visitors here this Holy Week,
06:48 we hope that we will be careful when we come here,
06:51 and we hope that our Holy Week will be peaceful.
06:54 God bless you, brothers and sisters. Back to the studio.
