December 16 - Start of Simbang Gabi

 Today is the start of Misa De Gallo or Simbang gabi. My parents and siblings went to hear the mass and I stayed at home because of work. To be honest, I really can't remember when 's the last time I attended  simbang gabi. Because of the nature of work I have, I couldn't attend dawn masses.


 Anyway, I know most of the people who attends mass believes that completing 9 days would fulfill all their wishes. But let us not forget, that simbang gabi is not about granting wishes. It is a preparation for the coming of Jesus Christ, and also a great opportunity to thank God for a wonderful year despite of all the challenges and circumstances everyone has encountered.


 So to everyone who goes to mass, thank God for all the blessings you have, may it be little or big :)




P.S.
Today is also Marky's bday. Friends4keeps resident Surfer in the USA :)
Happy birthday Marky :D


hugs and kisses,
