Tonight, 9/28/2023, Fr. Raymund and the St. George Parish's Filipino Association organized a celebration to honor St. Lorenzo Ruiz - the first official Saint of the Philippines. The event included Mass, lots of great food, fellowship, and live entertainment ... and this ministry was privileged to be able to participate in it.
St. George Parishioners sure know
how to throw a party!
Before the Mass ended, I was invited to speak about the life of St. Lorenzo Ruiz and the significance of Saints, who affirm the possibility of us attaining holiness ourselves; the value of our Saints' intercessory help; and the relevance of relics, their sacred remains.
mine is 90-years-old? Wow!!!
The turnout was bigger than ever and, as with prior-year celebrations, everything came together smoothly, making for a fantastic San Lorenzo Fiesta!
St. Lorenzo Ruiz, pray for us!
In Hawaii it wouldn't be a complete
celebration without a hula dancer.
