The Holy
Rosary Parish Church in Boracay extends its message to its congregation in
relation to the celebration of Boracay Ati-atihan 2014.
Father
Nonoy Crisostomo, Team Ministry Moderator of the BHRP said that the few changes
on the celebration echoed the island’s status.
A status
where there are many tourists to whom we can show our culture as Filipinos and
devotees of Sr. Sto. Niño.
This year,
Fr. Crisostomo said that the activities are better coordinated with the Balabag
Brgy. Council and the Malay Tourism Office.
This he
said is for an enhanced and more joyful celebration of the feast of the Child
Jesus in the island.
Moreover,
Crisostomo said that this may not only be about drinking and merry making, but
that people should remember that this is an expression of their faith.
He added
that this celebration may be peaceful and meaningful for both local and foreign
tourists.
Father
Crisostomo wishes everyone a prosperous new year and that the Child Jesus shall
be with everyone’s lives for more years to come.
