Glad I was at your Simala


Faith makes us sure of what we hope for and gives us proof of what we cannot see. 
It was their faith that made our ancestors pleasing to God.
Because of our faith, we know that the world was made at God’s command. 
We also know that what can be seen was made out of what cannot be seen. 
 ~ Hebrews 11:1~3



I am a pure Catholic. I have faith. I pray. I believe in Jesus Christ. I believe in Virgin Mary. So, sometimes, I do some pilgrimage to shrines and other holy places. My faith has made me who I am. I am stronger, I am confident, I am an optimist, I am a believer, I am renewed, I am loved!

I was hoping I'd visit the Holy Land someday; but of course, that would be a different story.This time, I will be featuring The Monastery of the Holy Eucharist or also known here in Cebu as "Birhen sa Simala". Situated south of Cebu,  the monastery is located in Marian Hills, Lindogon, Simala, Sibonga Cebu. It can be reached for about 1.5 to 2 hours (including traffic) by bus.
