The other carrozas...

Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal on her carroza San Jose on his carroza Imaculada on her carroza Sto Nino on His carroza

An unfortunate incident

The image of the Sto. Nino held by St. Joseph apparently was not attached to the latter well enough that mid-way through the procession, it fell. Good thing the Sto. Nino was not damaged.

Sharing the homily of the priest sa Balara nung Morning Mass...the most important part of St. Anthony is his tongue (relic displayed at his chuch in Podova)...he preached the good news all over (and until now even if he's already dead he keeps on doing so...)

St. Anthony, pray for us!
