La Naval

naging tradisyon na sa bahay ang magpunta sa Sto. Domingo Church tuwing fiesta ng La Naval. di lang para magsimba, kungdi para manood ng prusisyon. isa na yata sa mga pinaka-well attended procession ang La Naval, di lang sa dami ng tao kungdi pati sa dami ng santong kasama (na halos puro mga pari noong nabubuhay pa sila).

taon-taon dun kami pumupwesto sa may kanto ng Sto. Domingo at Dapitan … best seats in the house kasi. dami nga akong katabing photographer dun e. meron matutuntungan at kahit maraming tao sa harap e makikita mo pa rin. :)

eto ang isa sa mga pinakasikat na santo … si St. Martin de Porres MartindePorres

eto, di ko pwedeng makalimutan dahil sa alma mater ko … St. Tomas Aquinas TomasAquinas

a eto, di mga santo yan … si tita conching at nanay ko yan :)

pag nakita nyo na to, ibig sabihin malapit na yung La Naval … nasa dulo na ang prusisyon

ooops, ako yan. syempre dapat may proof na nandun nga ako. di naman obvious na ako rin ang kumukuha nyan no? :D

eto ang La Naval … ang patron saint ng Quezon City

dami dami talagang tao …

The occassion looks so joyous on pictures and it maybe even more in actuality. Here in Zamboanga, Fiesta Pilar din sa Miyerkules. Me prusisyon din at mga parades.

hi Tanie … musta na ba? naku, talagang wala kang makikitang prusisyon dyan sa New York … hahahaha. uy i-check mo nga pala ang aking Kodakan section, dun sa Family. nandun ang iyong wedding pics na kuha sa camera ko :)

Major Tom … hi :) it sure was a joyous occasion. and even though it was cloudy the whole day (and raining in bulacan!), hindi umulan sa Sto. Domingo. galing no? uy Happy Fiesta dyan sa inyo sa Zamboanga … i’ve never been to Mindanao, but if given the chance, gusto ko talaga mapuntahan ang Zamboanga :)

Ang ganda ng mga santo, no? Parang ginintuan. Sana mabiyayaan naman ng grasya ang Pilipinas. May tanong ako, bakit maitim si St. Martin de Porres?

Cecille October 12th, 2005 at 9:16 pm

Naku locamama sana nga matupad ang wish natin at mabiyayaan sana ng maraming grasya ang Pilipinas.

dapat politically correct ang sagot ko sa tanong mo ha … sige iko-quote ko na lang ang Catholic Online … “His father was a Spanish gentleman and his mother a coloured freed-woman from Panama”

:D

Salamat at nagustuhan mo ang bago kong layout. Mukha bang pang-professional ang dating? :D haha.

Eto ang nami-miss ko dito sa US, mga prusisyon na madalas akong sumama noong nasa Camarines Norte pa ako, parati akong sumasama sa Penafrancia fluvial procession. nakaka-miss talaga!

Cecille October 15th, 2005 at 12:06 am

The feast of the La Naval de Manila, dubbed as the procesion de las procesiones, is to commemorate the triumph of two ill-equipped galleons (Encarnacion and Rosario) against 18 Dutch warships in 1646. From then on the people from all over the philippines flock to Santo Domingo every 2nd sunday of October to perpetuate the promise of the 2 Captains and in thanks giving for the bountiful blessings they all have received through her intercession. Traditionally, this feast is well attended by the high society as this is the longest and grandest Marian celebration in the Philippines.

Even before the La Naval battles, devotion to the lady already exists. Countless miraculous events happened and has been recorded especially in some of the Almanaque de la Nuestra Senora del Rosario. The image was comissioned under the request of Don Luis Perez de Dasmarinas and under the direction of Hernando de los Rios Coronel in 1593.

This year, the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary holds the celebration of the Centennary of the Lady’s Canonical Coronation to be held at the 4th of October, 2007. A series of concerts by popular artists as Basil Valdez, the UP Concert Chorus etc. which will coincide the nine-day novena.The Grand Procession will be the culmination of the affair on the 14th.
