mag-suroy-suroy pud diay ang birhen

I don't know if this kind of religious barangay affairs exist in other places, but, here in our place, we have this weekly suroy of the blessed Virgin Mary. Each week, the image is transferred to another house and for the whole week, it will be under the household's care.

Last saturday, I had to be the pangulo since the elders wasn't able to bring their eyeglasses. I admit, i don't memorize the holy rosary, the different decades and the other prayers but I was thankful that I was able to get through the novena. From our house, we went to 'Na Susa's house where we read the gospel and then shared our thoughts about the readings.

I think that this is where the idea of SUROY-SUROY Sugbo was taken. Hahahahaha although this is a long-shot idea but i think that the Cebu Chamber of Commerce (who by the way was the one who proposed the idea of bringing tourism to the countryside) has been an avid supporter of Mama Mary's laag-laag.

Then they discussed about the mass earlier (mga kaadlawon) where Father Joy acknowledged one of the parishoner that was late in the mass. Hmmmm I haven't attended a Sunday mass for like months now... ana na diay ron noh? mahadlok man pud ta musimba...

Na-frustrate jud ko sa pagpanghilabot sa simbahan like the Lozada thingy. Dghan naman na silag kawarta sa kada collection nila matag adlaw, dili nlngu nta muapil-apil pa... instead, magCOncentrate na lang sila sa pag-pangitag paagi nga wala nay laing pari pa ang mamitad og bra.

Kusog pa gyud kaayo ni sila mangaway sa probinsiya.

When the Oslob church was razed by fire, the church, through their "most responsible" media affairs spokeperson, Msgr. Daakay, attacked the Suroy-suroy Sugbo, here's the story (Suroy-suroy Sugbo defended) for your reference.

Oh, tomorrow would be the first day of the Northern Escapade Trail. And for the very first time, Bogo City and Tabogon would be joining in the tour. Hmmmm intriga jud ni... And take note, the governor is also invited in Bogo City's fiesta this May. Watch out! She would be crowning the winner for the search of Ms. Bogo 2008!

Such a pretty and exciting development for the province. Click here for the complete story or visit Cebu Province's website.
