PILGRIMS FLOOD CATARMAN PLAZA TO CELEBRATE PENTECOST 2011


PILGRIMS FLOOD CATARMAN PLAZA TO CELEBRATE PENTECOST 2011

The Sacred Heart Plaza of Catarman was flooded by pilgrims from different parishes and mission centers who attended the 15th Pentecost Celebration, June 11-12, 2011. This year’s celebration had the theme, “Batan-on: Pinakusog san Espiritu Santo Tikadto san Pagbag-o san Kristohanon nga Katilingban”.

Right after the program, the customary Pentecost Liturgy began through the Exposition and Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament as well as the Penitential Rite and Individual Confessions. The occasion had been a moment of grace and conversion and of the outpouring of the Spirit’s gift of love, peace and joy. And at about 12:30 in the morning of June 12, already Pentecost Sunday, the Catarman clergy and other visiting priests joined the main celebrant Most Rev. Emmanuel C. Trance, DD in celebrating the Eucharist. Though tired and drowsy, the vigilant pilgrims continued to participate in the liturgy with unabated vigor and enthusiasm. Once again, the fire of the Spirit was set aflamed in the hearts of the worshipping crowd. Veni, Creator Spiritus! Qui diceris Paraclitus. (Come, Holy Spirit, Creator come! Thou who art called Paraclete).
