Laguna
This is the first time we brought Evan along to do Visita Iglesia. We didn't have any map with us, we just went from one town to another in Laguna and looked for the old churches. It was already dark towards our 5th visit, so the last two were already in Alabang and Makati (the church where we got married and where Evan was baptized).
On the road, I have to explain to Evan the meaning of Holy Week, he keeps on asking why was Jesus dying and when is he gonna be back. I truly hope we have imbibed in him the essence of what we did that day.

I also tried this last Holy Week. Here's the funny part. I entered this one church and amidst the silence, I was delighted to see all these brown people around. I told myself this is where I belong. I immediately knelt on a pew and closed my eyes to pray. Then I heard the priest (I could identify him by his robe) speak but I never understood a single word he said. I realized I am with a Laotian congregation. I immediately made the sign of the cross and shyly left the church.
hahaha! that's a funny story choy, thanks for sharing. :)
