After the mass for the Filipino martyr celebration, came the reception at St. Joseph Gymnasium. Here are some photos I snapped right before the meals were served. A friend's daughter whom we used to take care of when she was still a baby is getting bigger. We seldom see her but she still recognize us which is really nice.
The St. Joseph Children Choir sang the song that was personally picked by the priest, "Light Your Candle" before dinner.
It's nice to see familiar faces that day. I seldom attend to Filipino parties so it was quite a treat to see them.
Most of the Filipinos came in traditional clothing except me. I will be posting more photos when I have time.
