Yesterday, I joined my friends from my previous work for a Visita Iglesia. We go directly to this shrine called Luminous Cross of Grace Sanctuary at Agdangan, Quezon for our way of the cross.
We were assisted by Ms. Anna Marie. She shared with us the history of the said sanctuary.
As we start our way of the cross, I was amazed with what I saw inside. What I was expecting were pictures or paintings on each station, but the images here are life size paper mache!
I was so touched by the images. The scenario on each station makes me feel the real thing. There's this heavy feeling in my heart as I climb the stairs going to each station. Like the wounds of Jesus Christ which is almost real that it got my eyes teary... Indeed, God really loves us that Jesus has to suffer to take away the sin of His beloved children... As we reached the 14th station my heart pounds hard as I see Jesus Christ image... He is looking down at me smiling with arms wide open! The feeling I had that time was unexplainable. Walking slowly on the ramp I told my friends with a big smile, "Siguro ganito ang pakiramdam pag-akyat natin sa langit" (Maybe this is how it feels like when we go to heaven). An experience I will never ever forget...
We are not allowed to take pictures inside the Sanctuary. But you can visit their site to take a peek of what I had shared with you guys.
Wishing all of you a Blessed and Peaceful Holy Week.
