The commemoration of the faithful departed brought tears to so many, myself included as we once again remember our dearly beloved who have gone before us in faith. 

As you know, my hometown Virac in the island province of Catanduanes was recently hit by the strongest typhoon (hurricane/cyclone) on earth in record history in 2020. You can view photos all over the internet #RollyPH or #Goni...Below are a couple of videos of the unimaginable destruction.  

For the eternal repose of the souls of the parishioners who recently died and condolences, sympathy and consolation to the bereaved families, relatives, and friends. Rest assured that they are included in the thoughts and prayers of the parish community gathered for Sunday Mass.  

Jose Manuel "Chemel" Quijada, Eric Andres Martinez, 

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.
