Pearls are often referred to as the gems of the seaโ despite its simplicity, it exudes grace and elegance with its incredible luster. However, behind this gracious appearance is the immense pressure that takes place in forming this ornament.
The Parish of the Lordโs Ascension has always been referenced to the image of a pearlโ a beauty formed out of a disastrous outcome. The aftermaths of the infamous eruption of Mt. Pinatubo has led to its establishmentโ becoming the symbol of resiliency and faith even in trying times. As the parish celebrates its 30th year today, we are once again reminded of the great trials and triumphs PLA has conquered within the span of 3 decades.
