The Holy
Rosary Parish (HRP) in Boracay is now ready for the nine-day series of night
masses known as “simbang gabi.”
In fact,
one of the four candles on the advent wreath was already lit last week
indicating the beginning of advent or the coming of the Messiah.
According
to Father Nonoy Crisostomo of HRP Boracay, the said candles, which are colors
pink and violet, symbolize the four-week-waiting before the 25th of December.
Father
Crisostomo meanwhile confirmed the schedule of masses for the coming evening
masses.
He said
the masses will be conducted at 4 in the morning from December 16 to 24, the
eve of Christmas.
The influx
of parishioners is also expected, and so Father Nonoy advices the public to
bring with them extra chairs or go to church as early.
