Every year, we try to go to at least eight churches, starting from UST, where we always hear the Holy Thursday mass. This time, however, our friends Rudy and Anna with their daughter, Yanna, decided to join us. They had been planning to go to Baguio for the Holy Week as they always do each year, but for some reason their minds changed. Must be because they had such a disastrous trip to Boracay last week, thanks to the incompetence of Cebu Pacific. They probably decided to stay in Manila instead.
So we decided to divide our Visita Iglesia to two legs this year: one around Manila on Holy Thursday and the second to Rizal churches on Good Friday.
Tonight, we went from UST to San Sebastian, and then San Beda and the twin churches of Loreto and St. Anthony. Then, we went back to Pandacan's Sto Nino Church and finally, Sta. Ana, which was very calming because of its mellow music filling the courtyard where the altar of repose was set up.
All in all, we visited seven churches tonight. Tomorrow, we plan to visit seven more.
