Cathedral of Immaculate Conception

When we visited Hong Kong, we attended English Sunday Mass around 9:30AM at this Cathedral and it was a very pleasant scene to see different races of people worshiping the Lord as one. Whether Asian, European, American, African, Australian, Caucasian, White, Black, Brown, Dark, tall and short - all are gathering before the Lord our God.

Visita Iglesia 2012

In Hong Kong and Macau

Because of our busy and hectic schedule during the Holy Week, my wife and I have not visited 7 churches as part of our devotion and heritage. We were supposed to visit the churches of Cavite province from Bacoor all the way to Maragondon, Cavite. But everything was too tight for our schedule so we decided to have the Visita Iglesia some other time.

And when we travelled to Hong Kong and Macau on the last week of April, we decided to make this our Visita Iglesia for 2012.
