Recalculating: Kamay Ni Jesus, Lucban, Quezon




My grammy invited me to go to one of her work outings at Lucban, Quezon. At first I thought it was a weekend retreat so I was so eager to go. Apparently it was just a day trip, which was a bit of a disappointment. Huhu.

Anyway. We went to Lucban, Quezon to go to the famed "Kamay Ni Hesus". Note: I have never been to that place before so I assumed that there would be an actual "Kamay ni Hesus" statue or something. Indubitably, I was mistaken. The place is known for their "Healing Masses" with Fr. Faller. Theres a step where you close your eyes and hold his hand, then let God Run through you through Fr. Faller's hand, imagining that his hand is Jesus' hand.

But no, I wasn't disappointed that there wasn't an ACTUAL hand statue because there were a bunch of statues all over the place. They were a LITTLE BIT creepy at first, but you'll get used to them after a while. 


Me and Auntie Cherrie, my grammy's best friend. We were instructed to wear WHITE, not white with polka dots. *oops*



Their really TIRING but extremely AWESOME Stages of the Cross. I have to say, it was very tiring because it was just so steep. You really have to climb up to appreciate all of the statues.



We heard mass at the church in front of the Stages of the Cross. Yes yes. Its true. I'm not agnostic anymore. I guess it was time to let God guide me. Clichè as it may be but for a while, I've been just really lost. 



Oh. This one's pretty cool. Its Noah's Ark. Its part hotel, part chapel, part restaurant, part playground.

Look at that awesome elephant. Huhu. 


This is the chapel inside Noah's Ark. We heard a second mass here (specifically for my lola's group).


Everyone minus me because I was the one taking photos. Specifically, ALL of the photos from their cameras and phones. 


Our lunch for that day. CAN I JUST SAY THAT THIS IS SO COOL. EVERYTHINGS BIODEGRADABLE, EVEN THE SPORK.


Aaand to end the post, I present to you the Php 10.00 Milo iced cream that they sold by the parking area.

Forgive the blandness of this post. I'm currently working on another blog post (and another). I didn't even bother to edit the photos in this post so it looks disgusting.

Anyway. 'Til next time! ✌️
