Visita Iglesia 2022♥

After two years I am so happy to do this again.  Visita Iglesia is a "panata" (vow), been doing this since our (with my sister and cousin) college days.  I remember we used to commute (by jeep) to go to 14 different churches.  Yes, we leveled it up to 14 instead of 7 that time but since we're still in the pandemic we only visited 7 churches this year.   First: Our Lady of the Nativity Parish (Cinco Hermanos) Second:  Real Monasterio De Santa Clara De Manila (Katipunan, Quezon city) Third: The Immaculate Conception Cathedral (Cubao, Quezon City)   Fourth: Christ the King Church (E.Rodriguez, Quezon city) Fifth: National Shrine of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel (New Manila, Quezon city) Sixth: Carmel of St. Therese of the Child Jesus  (Gilmore, Quezon city) Seventh: Our Lady of the Abandoned Church (Marikina city) Though I am still afraid to go to places with lots of people, but it felt really good when I first stepped inside the church (1st after 2 years)....
