Holy Week

It's Good Friday, we woke up around 5:30 a.m. and had fried fish for breakfast. The kids, being exempt from fasting, had their usual TJ Hotdogs. We, together with my 2 sons(Isko, 8 & Bryan, 7) and parents, joined the Way of the Cross done across Burayan. We went from the highway to the inner streets of the barangay and we capped it inside our chapel at around 9:00 a.m. A short time after arriving home a lay minister came to ask me if I could retype and print the "Pasyon Han aton Ginoo Jesucristo kinuha dida han Evangelio nga sinurat ni San Juan", it was to be used in the afternoon. It was all done just before noon. After lunch we had our afternoon siesta and woke up around 3:00 p.m., after which we watched the Passion of Jesus Christ movie of Mel Gibson. As we watched, my two sons had a lot of questions regarding the film. Questions like; "Why would Christ have to suffer if He is God himself?" Oh well, I tried my best to answer each of those questions. But still I could see in their eyes more questions after I gave my answers.
Our youngest, Blessie, was awake the whole afternoon while we were having siesta. So, by around 4:00 p.m. she was already sleepy. I bet we had a meaningful Holy Week for the family. Easter here we come!!!
