June 11, 2023 : Feast of Corpus Christi. Blessed to have my first baptism to the Parish of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal after the general transfer of diocesan priests. "We share in the one body and the one cup of Jesus..." Indeed, we are to become a Eucharistic people - the Holy Eucharist which makes the Church. How blessed we are to become Christ to others - bringing his graces and blessings to others! What a noble service indeed - more than the temporal good we share to others! Let us become the Lord's instruments of faith, goodness and salvation to others - and surely, we wi become bliss-ful!

May 13, 2023 : " My spirit rejoices in God my savior." God in us makes us rejoices to be together...God among us make us grateful for the blessings of life and communion! Our simple parish dinner togertherness is a visible expression of our self- transcendence and self-giving. We all have our differences and woundedness...but the God we believe...the God who loves...is the God who unites us...and makes us his own - "a people set apart." Mary, our Mother continues to be with us...always "giving birth" to Jesus in our hearts. With Mary, are become close to Jesus....with Jesus, we are united to one another. Truly, it is the Spirit of God who is given among us...the Spirit that enlivens the very love of Jesus in us!

Loyalty is the mark of a mature individual...it is the charcter of a contented individual...one who is not loyal is one who is interiorly disturbed...socially misbehaved...

At the left side portion of the Shrine, near the sanctuary is where the image of the Divine Mercy is installed as its center...and the statues of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and of St. Joseph...so speak well and reveal with all certainty of the unconditional love and fidelity of God to his Church - "his choosen race... his royal nation...his priestly people...his children set apart! True devotion therefore should inflame one's heart...one's soul with pure reverence, confident entrustment and humble submission to God.

at the right side portion of the Shrine, near the sanctuary is the Blessed Sacrament...where Jesus waits and welcomes those who approach and come to him especially during personal and private moments of visit...silence...devotion...and prayers. "Come to me," Jesus says, "who are tired and find life burdensome, and I will give you rest." In its utter simplicity rests so great a mystery of Christ's faithful love and enduring goodness. O, Sacrament most holy...o, Sacrament divine...all praise and thanksgiving be always Thine."

"The holiest of holy"...the sanctuary...the altar...of the Shrine...so awe-some to behold...worthy of all reverence...is where the mystery of salvation takes place...where Jesus contiues His redeeming mission...once at the Cross of Calvary...now, on the Table of Sacrifice...where Jesus becomes sacramentally present...and becomes BREAD of LIFE ...for body and soul...both at and through the table of the Word...and the table of the Eucharist...for "he who eats my body and drinks my blood will have life in him...life in abundance."

The inner sanctuary of the Shrine is where the baptized congregate and celebrate their being Church...one family...one Church of God- united in the bonds of faith and love, prayers and worship, commitment and service; indeed, united to Christ and to one another especially during every Eucharistic celebration...and through the Liturgy of the Word and the Liturgy of the Eucharist..the whole Christian community is being nourished, strengthened and sustained in their faith and life..

So simple...yet so meaningful is the ceiling of the Shrine. The white-paint color signifies heaven...and the three chandelliers symbolize the Blessed Trinity - THE ONE TRIUNE GOD...Father, Son and the Holy Spirit, the substance of our Christian and Catholic faith...something not only to adhere to religiously...but a reality we are called to make as our way of life. God is truly the God of the living - for all things are created by him...because He is love. Love creates...it gives life...we can only merit eternal life when God becomes trully present in us...that is, when we love one another...

The aisle from the entrance door to the sanctuary of the Shrine indicates that we are on our journey towards the Father's Kingdom...for we are all heirs as God's adopted children in and through Christ. We are all pilgrims. And heaven is our ultimate destiny. Eternal life is what God ordains us all for. That's why, we must seek HisKingdom over and above all, and all things will be given us beside.

The entrance door is symbolic of Christ who alone is the "door"... the "gate"...the "way" to the heavenly Father...To whom shall we go? Indeed, to Jesus alone who has the words of eternal life...with the Blessed Mother as our sure guide and companion on the way! It will always remind us all of the love the Lord has for all of us...a love that opens and welcomes...a love that embraces and forgives...a love that heals and makes us whole. The door also challenges us- through our prayers and devotion, to open our hearts...our lives...to the Lord...to his grace...to his workings...ceaselessly...unreservedly...unconditionally...

Located at the corner of San Lorenzo Ruiz St, Brgy. Villamonte, Bacolod City, near the front side of Villamonte Gym and at the side of St. Joseph School, La Salle, stands the gradiose and imposive Church of Immaculate Conception Parish and Shrine...is God's visible love and presence among His people...with Mary and through Mary, to whom special love and particular devotion is given and offered...amidst challenges and uncertainties, it will continue to stand and manifest that Jesus through Mary will forever be enshrined to the heart and soul of every one...especially to every devotee of the Immaculate Conception...
