CHURCH VISIT II: Asking for Guidance

Here is the continuation of my post about our church visit. However, due to some forgotten errors I could not find the pictures I have of these church. But still I have provided some links to help you out on your own journey. Enjoy and God bless!

PADRE PIO OF PIETRELCINA CHAPEL

Padre Pio was a Capuchin Italian priest, has been canonized in 2002, and is famous for bearing the stigmata. The chapel has a strict dress code, and due to its solemnity even the lightest sound seemed amplified. The chapel houses relics of St. Pio, and testimonials of persons that has been touched miraculously by the saint. Numerous churches have been established for veneration to St. Pio, and I've found one located in Sto. Tomas Batangas. Click here for mass schedule and for a list of St. Pio churches nationwide.

CHURCH VISIT: Asking for Guidance

It is customary for those taking the board exams to pray for guidance, and last 2011 we did our church visit to ask our Lord to help us get that most coveted "passed" mark. Some of my pictures were lost, and I've added some links to help you out if you ever plan to go on a spiritual trip. Enjoy! (And I will be forever thankful to the Lord for helping me pass my exams, and making this event a way to make me get closer to Him. I am not a fanatic Catholic, but I do believe in Him and His powers. \m/)

Alubihod, Guimaras : Weekend Getaway

The island of Guimaras is most famous for its sweet mangoes and of course, its unspoiled white sand beaches and breathtaking islets. For a weekend respite me and my friends chose one of the famous beach destinations, which is Alubihod. This small stretch of beach paradise is located in Nueva Valencia, a 30-45 minute travel from Jordan Wharf, and we decided to stay at Raymen’s. 

  

There are three resorts open for accommodation, the other two namely Alubihod Cove and Rico Beach Resort. But Raymen’s has been popular way back for its affordable prices and acceptable accommodations.
