Bulacan Pilgrimage - 1st Stop: National Shrine of the Divine Mercy

October 13th, 2008

The Holy Eucharist Parish of Moonwalk Paranaque is celebrating its Silver Jubilee. One of the church activities is a pilgrimage to Bulacan churches.

So last Saturday, my whole family joined the pilgrimage. Our first stop was The National Shrine of the Divine Mercy in Sta. Rosa 1, Marilao, Bulacan.

Since early 1990s, more than 300,000 devotees of the 3 o’clock Habit have flocked to the Shrine. The main altar features the life-sized painting of the Divine Mercy. The images of the Seven Archangels are included in the main altar. At the lower part of the Shrine and situated at the back, is the Grotto of Our Lady of Fatima. There is also an Adoration Chapel, which houses the painting of the Last Vision of Fatima. Adjacent to it is the so-called “Rosary Hill.” The 15 mysteries and the 14 stations of the cross help people experience conversion, healing, and a deeper relationship with God.
