[Project FeeTrail February 2013]: Visita Iglesia in Bulacan


This is my Feet-Trail shot for the month of February 2013, my first time to be standing at the heart of Bulacan. I just assumed it to be the "Heart of Bulacan" because I am standing between the Cathedral and their Municipal hall.

I joined a Visita Iglesia tour of Bulacan and decided that it's going to be my feet shot for the month. It was not exactly my first time in Bulacan, because I've already been to Malolos with my friends who lives there.


This is also my first time to see a relic of the actual cross, in St. Martin de Porres church. It was the actual cross where Jesus was crucified, according to the speaker in behalf of the church. I also learned that the word "Tagalog" is derived from "Taga-ilog" and those from Bulacan are the first ones called Tagalog. It is also important to take note that, I think, all of their churches are near bodies of water, because back during the day, the mode of transportation of people is through a boat just to get to the church.

 As I was walking, lined up to kiss the relic, I kept thinking what wish I would want to ask for, given just a few seconds to feel and experience the relic.

But, by the time I got there, I spent my 5 seconds moment with relic just basically asking for forgiveness.


What interesting stuff have you learned recently?
