Day 30. This one is my new bracelet. I wear this one almost everyday, together with my brown rosary bracelet. I added my camera’s cap for no reason at all…

Day 11. Day 5 of the Novena Mass for Sto. Niño. The mas novena is for the environment. They give this little prayer pamphlet for mass attendees to be guided by the novena. After the priest’s homily, a video clip has been shown on the beauty of the earth that God had created, and what is happening to it right now, what people have done that result to natural disasters. I hope that this will serve as an inspiration for us Cebuanos and all people as well, to take care of Mother Earth before it’s too late.

I have included here on what is written on the above photo, you might as well want to pray!

Sto. Niño Prayer for the Care of the Earth
Environmental Creed
Almighty Señor Sto. Niño,
You gifted us with the wonders of Creation, and prepared for us a world of diverse abundance. The Web of Life that you established nurtures and protects these precious blessings. Your wisdom is truly resplendent in all creation.
Together with all these gifts, you gave us intelligence, will, and the mandate to take care of Mother Earth, that she may not only remain whole, but continue to be healthy and prosper as she provides for us all.
But over the last generations, we have turned against Mother Earth and traded the gifts of creation for fascinating things that do not last.
For the sake of comfort and convenience, we have poisoned the air that we breathe, the water that we drink, and the soil that gives us our food. We have wiped out the forests for its timber, and wonder why animals have become extinct, and why landslides and flash floods have become common occurrence. We have harvested sea life relentlessly and violently, and wonder why there are no more fish to catch. We pollute our air, rivers and seas with industrial waste, but continue to debate if the catastrophes that beset us today are caused by our human activity.
Beloved Señor Sto. Niño,
Open our eyes and hearts that we may see the truth, that all of us, especially our leaders will hear your urgent prodding to change our way of life before it is too late.
Unite us thourhg the power of your Holy Spirit, that together we can make the decision to stop ravaging Mother Earth; and together embrace a life in harmony with your Creation.
Embolden us with your power, that we may have the courage to stand up against greed and manipulation, to undertake the bold steps to restore Mother Earth to health within our generation.
Dear Señor Sto. Niño,
As we look upon you, with the world in your tiny hands, we are filled with confidence that there is still hope, that you will not abandon us and future generations. That for as long as we do not give up, you will not allow greed and destruction to overcome our world and Mother Earth, but rather gather us all, till we become once more reunited in harmony with your creation of beauty and wonder. AMEN.

Day 10. Sinulog sa Kabataan. After having our photo shoot in the streets, went to Abellana…and since I don’t have a longer lens…hihihi… a friend and I decided to just take photos at the sides of the stage where the contingent will wait for their turn. I happen to see this Sto. Niño which is from one of the contingent and took a picture of it. :-) Viva Pit Senyor!

Day 7. Opening Salvo for the fiesta celebration of Sto. Niño de Cebu. This is my first time to witness the opening salvo and take pictures as well. Waking up very early is worth it, because it gave me an overwhelming feeling to be part of the celebration.

This photo is taken while we were waiting for the procession from Fuente Osmeña to Sto. Niño.

Friday is our day!

October 23,2009, Friday, my buddy Ricci and I went to Sto. Niño. As I’ve said it’s always our day. Sometimes we attend mass sometimes just light candles, but most of the time we do attend mass.. hehehe.. Since that day, we both didn’t make it the mass, we decided to just relax a little at the fountain area before we go and light our candles that we usually bought from an old man. (Yes, we both made a promise that if we go to Sto. Niño we’ll make sure that we buy candles from that old man).

 (Ricci did a pose first)

I got have to take a deep breath first when we met, because I walked from Metro Colon to Sto. Niño, hoping that I can still make it to the mass, but sadly didn’t. I thought the place was a perfect subject for photography, but I don’t have my camera with me, but gladly I have my camera phone to the rescue.hehehe..so we played with the lights in the area, and tsada! The pictures aren’t that good though, but the thought is the most important.. and we enjoyed it… hehehe

(he just can’t resist it…)
(so do i…hehe)
(and here goes the lighting..hahaha)
(cropped… i just can’t helped it when i zoom the picture
it made me smile as well…)
(you can’t deny it…bisag phone camera, trying hard japon…hehehe)

And we both ended up having a good, though very little time together.
