Anima Christi: a very beautiful song. Very refreshing to the soul

I want to share this very beautiful song.
This describes my plea to the Lord. Everytime I hear this song, my eyes become tearful and my sins flash in my memory, even sins of the past. It petrifies me to think back of the sins i have done and I am so sorry for it.
Thank you Lord for the forgiveness! Make me brand new!

Memorabilia's of our Blessed Mother in the Marian Monks of the Holy Eucharist

As promised in my previous post I will be showing some of the pictures I took in the mini-museum after you have visited the Miraculous Image of Mama Mary. The pictures are not of good quality since I was not able to bring my digicam so a handy camera phone did the magic.

These are the original vestments worn by the image of Mama Mary from 1999-2009

These are the rosaries used in the image of Mama Mary from 1998-2009

Some of the viels of Mama Mary.

These are the original stuff that the monks used on the early days of their settlement. The bamboo torch was used when they were doing the procession during the plague that hit the town together with the flowers and the guitar. Miraculously the plague went away. Take note of the clay pot on top. This has something to do with the next picture.

Notice the red liquid in the picture? (hope it's clear enough for you to see) that is an oozing liquid on a white candle. The red liquid was collected in the clay pot in the picture above.

Some of the beautiful images of the Blessed Mother also on display. The last image is the Niña Maria or the Baby Mary.

This is the original vestment worn by Mama Mary on her first shedding of tears.

The Crown and Rosary used on the Miraculous Image during the first shedding of tears.

Remember the image of Mama Mary on my previous post? On her birthday, September 8, 1999 at around 3:30 to 4:30 PM her faced turned into a Black Madonna. Notice the difference from the original Image.

This is the birthday dress of Mama Mary when the "Black Madonna" Phenomenon happened.

Just in case the pictured text is not clear:
A Great Phenomena took place:

            After the Holy Mass at 3:30 PM last September 8, 1999 in honor of Her Birthday, the statue of the Miraculous Mama Mary where vested of her new birthday dress prior to Her coronation and procession. It was a very solemn celebration in front of the public. When suddenly, a brilliant light appreared in the midst of the air floating like the twinkling stars of different colors in the sky. Minutes later, Her faced changes into a very beautiful alive young Lady and into a Black Madonna, followed by an indescribable scent of flowers wrapped this entire chapel. Hundreds of people were screaming, shouting, and crying "Mama Mary!, Mama Mary!, Mama Mary!"

            And again the beautiful image of Mama Mary shed drops of tears, graciously fall down on her checks. That Miraculous event lasted for about 10 minutes more or less

"Thank you Mama Mary for your love to us your children."

On my next post is our next destination: The National Shrine of Our Lady of the Rule Church in Lapu-Lapu City Cebu.

Weekend Local Marian Pilgrimage in Cebu, Philippines Part 1

Last July 31, I was given a chance to join my bestfriend's roadtrip to the northern part of Cebu, Lindogan Sibonga. Her sister arrived from Iloilo together with her husband for a visit to the "Marian Monks of the Holy Eucharist". I offered to drive so off we go!

This is a Marian site where the image of our Lady of Fatima shed tears, and a lot more unexplained phenomenon.

The monastery of the Marian Monks of the Holy Eucharist

This is the view once you arrive from the parking lot. You need to walk  towards the main chapel situated in the mountain. Just a few minutes (around 3-5 mins). Just offer the sacrifice of walking for Mama Mary.









You need to line up to kiss on the image of our Blessed Mother, while lining up you can see along the way the wheel chairs, letters of intentions, thanksgiving letters, miracle letters, pictures and everything unexplainable.

View on the second floor while waiting in line

When you reach the second floor, you can see the view of the original chapel which has beautifully transformed into this. Thank God for all the generous people who were so kind to financially support and renovate the chapel.

An iron grill with the M emblem which stands for Mary

This is an iron grill with an M design. One can still see the view below while waiting in line.

The pictures above are the pews on the second floor.

Angel carrying Holy Water

This beautiful Angel greets you on the second floor. You are near and about see our Blessed Mother. You have to prepare youself to see the miraculous image of our Blessed Mother. Dip your fingers in the Holy Water, make the sign of the Cross and pray... Tell our Blessed Mother your problems, your wishes and all the burden that you are carrying. Believe me She listens to you.

The following images are what you will see once you have entered the Holy Chapel of our Lady. This is the altar.

===========================================================

This is the Miraculous Image of our Lady of Fatima

There is a prayer area at the side of the chapel where you can still see the Miraculous Image or there are kneelers right below the image of our Blessed Mother. Here you can feel her presence, you can even smell the scent of flowers, very strong rose scent.

Once you are done with your prayers of intercession, there is a mini-museum where you can see memorabillia's of the history of this Marian Shrine. I will be showing them on my next post.

Tomorrow is the Day!

Tomorrow will be the day I will be meeting up with my agent. I believe my decision is final. I'm gonna get this house. Blessings will be pouring forth on this house. It will be my sanctuary, it will be the place where I can be alone and be in touch with myself and the Lord. I hope that this house will also be a refuge to those who will seek guidance - this includes my friends and relatives those that need time and space, to heal oneself of the hurly-burly's of the city life.

The next phase will be the approval of the housing board and everything will be set. I hope and pray that everything will fall into it's proper place and perfect timing. In His time...

Another blessing about to materialize...

This is the house that is about to come :)

For the longest time I started working, I have always dreamed of buying my own house :) and of living independently
Finally, I have decided to buy one. I have visited the site and the place. I feel the good vibes, a very happy place. I can feel that this is it, this is really it!

Please pray for me that my choice of location is perfect for me and that everything will be just fine. I am dedicating this house to Sto. Nino de Cebu, Our Lady of Fatima and St. Joseph and im planning to build an altar just for them.

Forgive Me My Lord

Oh Lord, I am so week with temptations. Why oh Lord? I understand that you have given us the freewill, to choose what is right and what is wrong but Lord why do I sometimes choose what is wrong? I know Lord I am only human and I know that you do not deserve me but Lord I beg for your Mercy. Lord help me repent for all my sins and the sins of my past. Let me be pleasing to you. May I be worthy to be called your Son and call You my Lord. I know my sins and it shames me to call you my Lord. Send forth thy Holy Spirit oh Lord, that I may be guided, choosing what is right and doing Your will. My Lord, my God, I have offended you. Forgive me oh Lord. May Mary my most Holy Mother be my protectress. May She cover me with the mantle of Her love and protection. May my soul be overhauled that I may be renewed in your Most Holy Name. May my Guardian Angel, together with St.Michael the Archangel, defend me in my battle. Together with them may I win all my spiritual battles. May your most Holy Name be praised.
Amen.
