BISITA IGLESIA

Our Lady of Mt Carmel/Carmelites Lanang St. Davao CIty Philippines

St. Jude Thaddeus Parish, Malvar St., Davao City Philippines
St. Jude is the Patron saint of the hopeless, sick people and the patron saint of doctors and nurses. Accordingly, St. Jude parish is also known as the patron saint of couples or singles who seeks a partner or to enter into a relationship.

Sta. Anna Parish, Davao City, Philippines

"My Sister received their Holy Matrimony here"

The Redemptorist Church of Davao City, Philippines
"Accordingly this church has the longest aisle in all churches in Davao City, that is, if we are to include the outside aisle. The aisle stretches across up to the other side of the street of Bajada making the ped xing part of the aisle. i think..
Many couples prefer to have their wedding here on the ground that it has the longest aisle. couples believed that for it has the longest aisle and so the relationship will long last. that is what i heard. oh yeah! my nanay and tatay had their wedding here 35 years ago and are still together until now."

Belfry of San Pedro
San Pedro Cathedral, Bolton St. Davao City Philippines
( Note: We already have a picture of the San Pedro Cathedral previously posted somewhere in our Blog.)

The Holy Infant Jesus of Praque Shrine (also known or commonly known by davaeno as "shrine")
(im sorry i was not able to capture the altar and aisle of the holy infant because when i went there at around 10 in the morning there was a mass going on)

I would like to share a novena to the Infant in Praque from WIKI;

This prayer is recited at the same time every hour for nine consecutive hours in one day. It is used by supplicants with urgent requests that cannot wait for the nine days required for most novenas.

O Jesus, You have said, "Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you." Through the intercession of Mary, Your Most Holy Mother, I knock, I seek, I ask that my prayer be granted.

(Make your request)

O Jesus, You have said, "All that you ask of the Father in My Name, He will grant you." Through the intercession of Mary, Your Most Holy Mother, I humbly and urgently ask Your Father in Your Name that my prayer be granted.

(Make your request)

O Jesus, you have said, "Heaven and earth shall pass away but My word shall not pass." Through the intercession of Mary, Your Most Holy Mother, I feel confident that my prayer will be granted.

(Make your request)

BISITA IGLESIA

Holy Spirit Adoration Convent, Davao City, Mindanao, Philippines.
Last Saturday, i visited some Churches here in Davao City. Known as in our dialect it is called as "bisita iglesia". It is a practice here as a member of Roman Catholic in our country to visit churches, offering prayers and/or petitions and candles in every church you have visited. This is normally done during Holy week however i had mine last Saturday for reasons of my upcoming undertakings.
