sensory replays 
it’s just sad that my family and i cannot have visita iglesia this year for obvious reasons. but certainly we keep our faith alive in our hearts.
.. i know visita iglesia has been customary for you and your family doc, anyway you still get a chance to hear mass there regularly. 🙂
wow naman, thanks sa info! mararating ko din yan rob!
.. oo naman chyng, kaw pa! 🙂
at last, my colleagues and i will visit the place today after some discussions whether to go or not due to some reasons. at any rate, maybe it’s god’s will that we were able to find ways to push through with the plan… and today we’re all excited to see and have a personal glimpse of the place…
.. hi miss beth! you will love the monastery, and once you get there you will always come back! 🙂
thanks sa info about the schedule of activities for this holy week. god bless.
.. god bless too, rina!
