Finding Peace in an Old Stone Chapel

Theres something in me that I really love going to church to hear the gospel of the lord and to feel his presence inside of his house. Being with the church is all that I want every Sunday to repent the sins that I have done but I can't go to the church if I'm just alone. So every time when my brother couldn't go to the church, I always end up in our house.

Also we had a black rosary here in our town and it once came on our house connecting to the saint felt just so good. When the leader of Black Rosary announce that there was a mass happened on Friday 10 pm, I was eager to come since it's been 2 days of Sunday that I don't go to church.

On Friday morning, I dress up and prepare to went to chapel. My mom and I will go to chapel since my brother had a class. This mass is special for those souls that they want to have a peace in the heaven.

The money that they will earn using those envelope was for the renovation of the Sta. Filomena. We had two church in here and this Sta. Filomena was an old church of us and this is the fiesta that we will be celebrating in third week of august and it's been our tradition.

When we got there, it is mostly adults and I can barely saw a teens but I understand since they had a class on this day. We waited here for like almost 30 minutes since the priest had a mass before on this time. The wind in this time was really strong and it made the leaves go inside that makes the place dirty. The chairs were full of dust since this church would be open on fiesta.

The whole place of this was really clean, since the fiesta will be happen for the next next weeks. And there is also a mass in here every 5:00 pm to welcome the fiesta on august. This chapel built with all stones. So they planned to renovate it to make it spacious and can fit all the residents of the Ilihanons. When the mass will be happened in here some of the people will just place those chairs outside and if it's raining there's no other place to shelter on since it was a small space.
