: The Coronation Anniversary and the Town of Magalang

The last time that the town of Magalang hosted the archdiocesan feast of our patroness, the Virgen de los Remedios, was in 1980. In the photo, you will see a photograph of Rosalio Dizon, who was chosen to crown the sacred image of our mother.

Do you have any photos or memories of the 1980 celebration? Tell us in the comments below.

: "DAPTAN YU NANU MAN ING SABYAN NA KEKAYU."

On September 8, 2024, we joyfully commemorate the 68th anniversary of the canonical coronation of our beloved patroness, the Virgen de los Remedios.

Hosted by the St. John the Beloved Vicariate, the Eucharistic Celebration will be held at the Pampanga State Agricultural University (PSAU) in Magalang and will be presided over by the Most Rev. Florentino G. Lavarias, D.D., Archbishop of San Fernando.

On August 30, 2024, a novena of masses will commence at San Bartolome Parish at 6 pm. Our Archdiocesan Media Network will stream these masses live, enabling the faithful to participate remotely if they are unable to attend in person.

On the feast day, September 8, the celebration will begin with a 3 pm liturgy at San Bartolome Parish. Following the liturgy, the images of the Virgen de los Remedios will be part of a solemn motorcade proceeding to the PSAU grounds, where the eucharistic celebration will take place. After the celebration, the images will be borne in procession back to the San Bartolome Parish Church. The faithful are invited to join the 4.3 KM walk.

Other notes from the Circular Letter 34 Series 2024:

- All parishes are enjoined to celebrate a Mass to commemorate the Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary on the morning of 8 September 2024. However, there will be no coronation rites in the parishes (Circular Letter No. 47, Series 1994, Policy on Local Coronations of the Image of “Virgen de los Remedios”).

- Parishes are also enjoined to cancel masses scheduled in the afternoon in favor of the archdiocesan celebration.

- The faithful are also encouraged to bring their own umbrellas, fans, raincoats, food, water, and other provisions.

More information will be shared soon.

Virgen de los Remedios, ipanalangin mu kami.
Sto. Cristo del Perdon y Caridad, pakaluluan mu kami.
