The Lenten season is fast approaching and being a Filipino we always make this season a time to reflect on ourselves. The best thing to start with during Lent is to join the Lenten Recollection organised by the Filipino Chaplaincy of the Diocese of Parramatta.

Pabasa (literally, a reading) is one of the must do activities during Semana Santa or in Lent.

Stations of the Cross refers to the depiction of the final hours (or Passion) of Jesus.

Salubong refers to the act of meeting someone who is arriving.

It is that time of the year again that we celebrate the feast of St Joseph the Husband of Mary.

Celebrating the feast of St Joseph the Husband of Mary always starts with a novena and is starting on 13 March 2009.
