Aaron's Blessing (Numbers 6:22-27)

The Lord bless and keep you!
The Lord let His face shine upon you
and be gracious to you!
The Lord look upon you kindly and give you peace.

Norman's Birthday Celebration

New Year's Eve

Yesterday we celebrated Norman's 70th birthday with a memorial Mass at Christ the King crypt chapel celebrated by my schoolmate, Fr. Boy Makabenta, who also blessed his niche. After Mass we proceeded to Delifrance Cafe for a nice brunch. About 32 people came, included Mamina, some of my siblings and their families, and my friends. It was a great way of thanking God for the wonderful gift of Norman's life.

Godbless and cheers for the New Year.

Day Pilgrimage to Lucban

Lucban Church and Streets








At Kamay ni Hesus (Hand of Jesus) Shrine




December 26, 2010

Took a bus to Lucban, Quezon in the foothills of Mt. Banahaw today to pray at the Kamay ni Hesus (Hand of Jesus) Shrine to thank God for His blessings this year and ask for kindness on my very sick friends and relatives, and visit the quaint places of the old town. Had merienda at Buddy's, a popular eatery by the plaza. Great time to reflect and enjoy the cool and clean environment of Lucban.

Happy boxing day!

Peace
