Visita Iglesia Online

I haven’t tried visiting churches or the traditional Visita Iglesia during the Holy Week, so glad the Catholic Church particularly the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) has put up an online site dedicated to people – who might not have a chance or the physical ability to leave their homes to visit different churches this lenten season.

There are at least 5 churches being featured by the site. You can check out the link within this post to begin your journey and reflections on the Stations of the Cross…

 

 

Why I Love to Visit Museums

One of the things I enjoy about going to the museum is seeing the century old artifacts from different parts of the country. I know its kind of weird but there is something in historical items that made feel nostalgic. It felt like I traveled through history when I see those artifacts. There is one downside with museum visit though, I’m having trouble reading small print of historical documents on display. I wish I’m using reading glasses in order to read very fine prints, if not, I will only be looking at tattered papers with unreadable text.

Anyway, my last museum visit was in mid-2000 as part of special media coverage. I wish to go back to the museum I’ve visited if given the opportunity.
