Early in the morning the devotees and residents of Barangay Punta Silum decided to went here along with their friends and Families. Fishermen also preparing and conditioning their sailing boats and plan to attend procession to the sea. They already put their small boats near at the sea water so that it. As for the fishermen's belief, this can make them specially in their fishing activities to have bounty and lots of fish to catch. Children are also having fun playing in the sand and some of them are swimming to the sea water. The sound system are already installed near at the coastal areas and some tents are also put in the place.
A moment later, the processions has begun and before they set sail to the sea the boats are blessed with holy water a sign of Blessed and Grace to all fishermen and their boats. After that, they started to left their boats to the sea water. Residents helped with each other lefting those small boats and approximately there are almost hundred of small boats will set sail to the sea riding by devotees. I decided to wait at the shore instead of joining the procession. Riding on a small boats makes me dizzy that is why I only wait the shore.
There are also lots of beach goers also joined the activities and some of it are havibg fun swimming at the sea water. This place contains tons of sands that is why it is really perfect to visit this place specially during summer. Some of the boats are already at the sea waiting to the Galleon, the boat were the Santo Niño placed.
The procession has finally begun and they carried it to the boat. They carefully carried and placed the Saint to the boat. The weather was very calm and good. The Saint is adorned with lots of flowers and balloons on it. The Church goers and devotees are also at the boats and it takes a few minutes before the Saint was properly placed. The band are also arrived bringing their drums and they will played festive music to the sea while riding the boats.
It takes almost an hour of proccession and along with the devotees. There are also a traditions about Getting lots of flowers at the Saint and according to them it brings good luck specially in their fishing activities. We are very happy to joined the activities especially those people who attended the Procession to the Sea.
After the proccession, a Mass was also held to the Beach. I've spent almost 3 hours attending the festival activities and I had a lot of fun time exploring the place also. Thank you for visiting my post, have a blessed Sunday to everyone.
