Fr. Rico Hilario: Feast on March 15 has a basis
January 27, 2008 by Herbert Joseph Carigma, under Culture and Tradition, Religious Affairs.
I know that most of our kababayans are confused (again!) on when we should celebrate the town fiesta. More than three years after the Sangguniang Bayan approved an ordinance setting the town fiesta on the last Sunday of January, parish priest Rico Hilario now says that it should be March 19. As that day falls in Holy Wednesday, the Church decided that it will be celebrated on March 15 (Read the Catholic Online article here.). This confirms the earlier post that there will be no activities for this year’s fiesta. (more…)

Pit Señor!!! Viva Sto. Niño
January 20, 2008 by Herbert Joseph Carigma, under Religious Affairs.
Looking at the faithful and the crowd who processioned the images of the Holy Child, it would be safe to say that the first ever celebration of the Sto. Niño festival was a success. I didn’t realize you can do so much with that famous image, from a farmer to a nurse, from a student to a member of the knights of the altar, from Robin to a basketball player. (more…)

Christmas Eve Mass 2007
December 26, 2007 by Herbert Joseph Carigma, under Religious Affairs.

My teacher in high school, Annabelle Anabo is holding an image of a baby Jesus, with her husband Christian. They walked towards the church and gave the image to Fr. Rico. (more…)

Simbang Gabi sa Baras 2007

This is the first and last time that I attended the simbang gabi this 2007. Work requires me to be in the office from 10 pm to 7 am of the next day. It was my day off last Monday and yesterday, but I have to take photos of the misa de gallo in Tanay, Rizal for a project. (more…)

Liwanag ng Buhay: Simbahan at Pamilya
November 10, 2007 by Herbert Joseph Carigma, under Religious Affairs.
Ang isang masayang pamilya ay napakainam tingnan. Si Tatay, si Nanay, ang mga anak… puno ng pagmamahalan, pag-uunawaan at malasakit sa isa’t isa. Sa araw ng Linggo ay makikitang sama-samang nagsisimba upang magpasalamat sa Diyos para sa mga biyayang natatanggap. Taglay dito ang pagsamo upang gabayan sa kanilang araw-araw na pamumuhay. Tunay na masasalamin na si Kristo ang sentro ng kanilang buhay. (more…)
