Feast Day of San Lorenzo Ruiz

September 28 is the Feast Day of the First Filipino Saint:  San Lorenzo Ruiz.

And that is Today!!! 

Happy Feast Day, San Lorenzo Ruiz !!! 



I love San Lorenzo Ruiz.  He is one of my favorite Saints.  He is one of my favorites because he is Filipino.  He is Filipino-Chinese.  There's a church built in Manila's Chinatown area (Binondo) where San Lorenzo Ruiz is the patron saint.   The Binondo Church is also known as "Minor Basilica of St. Lorenzo Ruiz and Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary Parish".  Whew!! Pretty long name huh?!?!   How's that for one of the popular churches here in Manila!  

I must visit Binondo soon. hehe!!
