Acts of Worship


Lent is Pilipino faith recounted in seven days. From the lusty welcome of the palms on a Sunday, to the sonorous reading of the Passion of Christ midweek, our faith undergoes a gradual renewal that explodes in cathartic grief on Good Friday's crucifixion.

Saturday brings closure , while Easter Sunday gives back a purified vision of ourselves reborn.

The scenes are replayed year after year, in big cities and small towns, a testament to how acts of worship are treasured encounters with both the dinine and the mortal in all of us. (excerpts from - sunday Inquirer magazine - March 10,2008)
