“A CHURCH is a hospital for a SINNERS, not a museum for SAINTS”
-Pauline Philips
The bloggers had their ever first adventure together. As for their second blog, they make sure that it will be memorable for them and this is not the last, but the stepping stone to their journey.
This second blogs contains the introduction of one of the famous place that always visited with the people and it is ‘Nuestra Seniora dela Annunciata Parish’ or also know as ‘ ‘The Old Boso Boso Church.’
It is a Roman Catholic parish church located in Sitio Old Boso-Boso, Barangay San Jose in Antipolo City, Rizal, Philippines. The first church was built as a mission church by the Franciscan missionaries in 1669. Originally, it served the Dumagat people of Lanatin and Linotan in the mountains of modern-day Rizal Province. The Jesuits eventually took over the mission and the church in 1741. It was turned over to the seculars in 1768 when the Jesuits were expelled from the Philippines.
The bloggers didn’t missed their chance to see and witness the beauty of this church. This is the inside of the church and obviously it is peaceful and very clean, we can say that even though it is simple, it didn’t failed us. Luckily, they preserve the beauty of this church that’s why it is one of the famous church in Antipolo City.
As they enter the church, they didn’t forget to show their devotion with God and to His fellowships.
As a travellers, they also encounter some hardships in their journey. First is the SIGNAL, it is hard to get a signal there because it sort of a mountainous area and the signal is also non-existent. Second is PLACE, it is too far from Antipolo and there is no direct ride or one ride for it. Lastly, there are no AMENITIES in this area. No atm machines, no convenient stores, no restaurants or fast food chains, only a Carinderia infront of the Church, no Police station, only Barangay station because obviously it is rural area.
