"PAX TECUM" signifies "Peace be with you" in Latin.
Pax Tecum also known as, "Pahalok sa Batang Hesus" is a beautiful tradition that reminds us that Christ is the reason why we celebrate Christmas.
The Pax Tecum is a holy and time-honored tradition by Altar Servers during the Christmas Season. It most commonly starts on Christmas day and continues for as long as necessary.
It involves bringing the image of the Most Holy Infant Christ to the homes and families of their church's designated area and jurisdiction. A simple rite is then prayed, to be followed by the veneration of the image of Christ through a kiss, touch, or a silent prayer.
To my fellow members, word canโt express my gratitude for your sacrifice, sa ilalum sa makapaso na init, sa ulan, sa kalayo sa baktasonon, tungasonon og batoon nga dalan, bahalag mangaguba ang sapatos. Indeed we all did our best for the greater glory of God. ๐๐
Happy holiday everyone & Advance Happy New Year!โค๏ธ
