It was held during the vesper of Saint Isidore the Labourer annual feast.
The air was filled with a sense of reverence as the patron saint procession began to weave its way through the streets. The rhythmic beat of drums echoed in harmony with the joyous hymns. The statue, adorned in resplendent garments and adorned with fragrant flowers. People of all ages, their hearts filled with faith and hope, followed the procession. The procession served as a testament to the enduring power of faith, uniting the community in a shared reverence for their patron saint, and reaffirming their belief in the divine protection and intercession offered by their heavenly patron.
After the procession, the faithful gather inside the church for the sacred Holy Mass. The celebrant, vested in pristine white garments, leads the faithful through the solemn prayers and readings, proclaiming the Word of God with reverence and clarity. The choir's harmonious voices soar, filling the sacred space with hymns that echo the sentiments of worship and adoration. The homily, delivered with humility and wisdom, enlightens the assembly, guiding them towards a deeper understanding of their faith and inspiring them to live lives of holiness. The Eucharistic prayers, uttered with profound reverence, consecrate the bread and wine, transforming them into the precious body and blood of Christ. The faithful, with hearts filled with awe and gratitude, approach the altar to receive the divine gift of the Holy Communion. As the Mass draws to a close, the final blessing is imparted, and the congregation departs with hearts uplifted and spirits renewed. The procession may have ended, but the essence of the Holy Mass lingers, nurturing the souls and fostering a deeper connection with God until they gather again in joyful anticipation.
The holy mass was followed by displaying fire works. Everyone enjoyed watching the beautiful sparkling fire works which was accompanied by the loud and sharp play of the drums.
After that, my sister and I took a picture of Saint Isidore's beautiful float.
