OUR LADY OF SORROWS OF TURUMBA


A painting of Our Lady of Sorrows was once washed ashore on Laguna de Bay but was too heavy to carry. Only when people began to sing, could they lift the image. Then they danced as well, twirling and swaying in a frenzy, prodding the Spanish friars to call them “turumba,” meaning crazed or insane. The Turumba Festival is held in Pakil, Laguna, up to this day.

OUR LADY OF ROSARY


This tablet captures a childhood memory: when once our family was in crisis, our grandmother called her grandchildren around her, brought out a huge rosary and asked them to pray with her. We were so small and the rosary so big, it felt like we could each hold a bead like a ball, prompting one of the kids to conclude: “Malaki siguro talaga ang problema natin!”

The Lady asked Juan Diego to gather Castilian roses from a snow-covered hill. “Impossible,” he must have thought. But there they were in full bloom. He gathered them in his tilma (cloak) and rushed to tell the bishop his story. Opening the tilma, he let the flowers fall out. But it wasn’t the beautiful roses that caused the bishop to fall to his knees; for there, on the tilma, was a picture of the Blessed Virgin Mary precisely as Juan had described her.

He also found great delight and solace in simple things such as the rising sun or flowers, all aspects of nature.
