This morning, our good friend Fr. Armand of Don Bosco greeted us a nice and warm message via sms. He said, “May the Lord bless you abundantly today as we celebrate Mother Mary’s birthday.”
My reply was: “Tnx Fr. Armand for keeping us in your prayers. Pacem.”
So, Chief and I decided to go for the 6pm “anticipated” Mass at St. John Bosco. The Mass was SRO… really quite different from the few other “anticipated” masses we had attended here. Even, parking was full. We sat at the back row. Chief was feeling a little dizzy because she had skipped lunch and the big crowd infront of her. I only ate bibingka for lunch too.
During the sermon, the priest talked about people’s “excess baggage.” We all have that kind of baggage that we carry through everyday of our lives. I guess we all have to manage it well and not let that extra weight pull us down. Often, this includes emotional baggage. The priest said that we should have priorities. Agree. Right now, our priorities is another chance at parenthood.
Happy birthday Mama Mary. Thank you for bringing Christian Gabriel into our lives!
