Today, I visited the place I used to go to when I want to say or share something that I know some people, friends, and family can't understand and that is this Church.
This is the same church where I had my first communion and confirmation that serves as a second baptism.

This is the image on the inside. When I enter the church I thought there will be a lot of people and there will be a mass. As far as I remember before every day there is a scheduled mass but with the current situation, they might have changed and made sure it will not be crowded.
At the beginning of the pandemic, people are not allowed to go out and what they did which I personally witnessed during my visit last April is they don't allow people inside and they used Facebook live, radio, and tv coverage to spread the word of God.
This is the convent and office of the church. On the space outside it used to be a temporary church when this church was struck by the Super typhoon last 2013.
Do you know how old this church is?
This church was established in 1718 on that note this church is 304 years old.
This is one of the oldest churches. The Ministry wanted to preserve the Church. They don't want to make a lot of changes even after it was severely damaged by Haiyan.
It took roughly 6 years to rebuild it again.

This is located at the center of our town facing our town plaza and also the market.

This photo was taken last April when I spent the Holy week with my family. Taken outside of the church. This is something that they added during the renovation and rebuilding of the church.
That is, for now, I hope I was able to give you a glimpse of our town and its history.
Till next time. 👌
