My first time in the metro, I really did my best to find this church so I can attend mass here on my birthdays. Being here for couple of times already makes me appreciate more its enthralling and preserved structure. Looks like a beautiful, conservative, simple yet elegant woman seated on a chair in a veranda yet captures the heart of the passersby.

While taking these photos, I can't help but smile and remember that familiar voice of my father who used to tell me that during my baptism, I was wailing while outside heavy rain keeps pouring. In this church, I was welcomed to the christian world.

Another witnessing happened today.

Summer heat and a look back brought me so much "ragsak."
When was the last time you visited the church where you were baptized? (",)

ReplyDeleteI visited Sacred Heart Parish Church, QC to get my baptismal certificate for our church wedding. Hope you'll go back here at Nuestra Señora de Gracia soon, to get yours, with 'for wedding purposes' marked on it. Wink wink! ;-)
