How are you doing?
'Cause I'm definitely in a good mood right now.
Yesterday, as a part of our Family's tradition, we came and visited Bogo City's Church.
Bogo City is located in the northeastern coast of Cebu province, on the principal island of Cebu.
And yes, Bogo City has it's various places to visit packed with beautiful native foods and holy places.
Bogo City celebrates its annual town fiesta every fourth Sunday of May in honor of its patron saint, San Vicente Ferrer.

San Vicente Ferrer Parish Church is known to have devotees who came from different places just to visit the church to strengthen their faith and ask prayers towards the patron.

Many devotees lit a candle in honor of the patron saint and pause for a moment to ask prayers and thanksgiving.
This fire symbolizes the connection of the people's undying faith to the Almighty one.
As a part of our Family Tradition, we also do these things not just to ask our own prayers but also to give thanks for everything.
This may be somewhat little to the eyes of someone but I captured the moments of truth and purity here in Bogo City.
I hope this will inspire all of you.
