Church Trip: Chapel of the Eucharistic Lord

I had a meeting at SM Megamall the other day when I saw the Chapel of the Eucharistic Lord...and thought of "checking in". Was taking pictures when the noon Mass started. So I just decided to stay for a full hour.

The homily was about a wedding where many people were invited as guests. One came not in his best wedding attire. The host was insulted and ordered the guest be thrown out.

Everyday, we are invited to be with Him. Out of respect and gratitude, we come prepared, in our very best...only the best.

Eulogy for Grandma Ruperta

Lola Ruperta was laid to rest last friday, September 10. To the friends of the family, thank you for the memories.

First, we thank you for coming. This is very nice… a record gathering of relatives and friends of lola Ruperta. Pang Guiness Book of World Records for the largest get-together of oldies!

Cremation

I just had the amputated leg of lola Ruperta C. Bernardo blessed by Fr. Benedict at Saint Gabriel.

Carrying the leg in a small wooden box was a little creepy. But its lola's.

After going through the interment requirements with an Eternal Garden staff, we decided to have the leg cremated.

Learned a lot. Now I know that a leg will require the same procedure and documents as burying a whole body. And we cannot open the niche inside the mausoleum by ourselves. We need to ask assistance from Eternal Gardens. Thank you Wenny and Oret for the help.
