Welcome all Visitors, Pilgrims and Devotees!! to the 16th Parish Fiesta of Saint Anthony Abbot Parish, Tapayas, Balatan, Camarines Sur. 🙏🏼

As one faith-filled community under the Archdiocese of Caceres, we come together to honor Saint Anthony Abbot, our beloved patron and a shining model of holiness, humility, and total trust in God. Inspired by his life of prayer, sacrifice, and love for Christ above all else, we celebrate this special occasion not only as a tradition, but as a living expression of our faith and unity.

Guided by this year’s meaningful theme, “Gabos Kaayon, Gabos may Gibuhon,” we are reminded that when we stand together in faith, everyone has a role to fulfill and everyone is called to serve. This fiesta invites us to renew our commitment to work hand in hand, to strengthen our bonds as a parish, and to share our time, talents, and treasures for the greater glory of God.

We joyfully gather for the scheduled religious activities on January 16-17, 2026, led by our esteemed presiders and preachers, as we offer our prayers through the Rosary, Holy Mass, Sacraments, and the festive moto-procession in honor of our patron saint.

This sacred celebration is more than a schedule of events—it is a living testimony of our strong faith, deep devotion, and enduring unity as one parish family.

As we journey through the Novena Masses, we are reminded that the Church is not only a structure but a people—walking together, praying together, and offering our lives to God through the intercession of Saint Anthony the Abbot, our beloved patron. Each Eucharistic celebration becomes an encounter of grace, strengthening our spiritual bonds and renewing our commitment to live a life of simplicity, humility, and service.

The Fiesta Vespera and Feast Day mark the joyful culmination of our thanksgiving, filled with prayer, worship, and sacramental celebrations. From the Holy Rosary to the Eucharistic Mass, Baptism, and Confirmation, we witness God’s continuing work in our community—calling us to deeper faith and greater love.

1st SUNDAY OF ADVENT - HOPE 🤍

As we enter the 1st Sunday of Advent, we open our hearts to the beautiful message of HOPE—the gentle light that guides us through every season of waiting, longing, and believing. 🤍

Advent reminds us that even in moments of uncertainty, God’s promise remains unwavering. Just as the Holy Family awaited the birth of Jesus with faith and quiet strength, we too are called to trust in the light that is coming—the light that transforms, heals, and renews.

Today, we gather as one community at Saint Anthony Abbot Parish to reflect on this sacred journey. May the soft glow of the first Advent candle inspire us to hope bravely, love deeply, and prepare our hearts for Christ’s coming.

Join us in prayer as we begin this blessed season:
3:30 PM – Holy Rosary
4:00 PM – Solemn Mass

Rev. Fr. Salvador P. Crucillo Jr.
Parish Priest

May this Advent season fill our homes, our families, and our spirits with peace, joy, and unwavering hope. ✨🙏🏼🤍
