Remembering the Sacrifices of Our Redeemer

Lenten season is a religious observant for Christians, it is a penitential preparation before the Easter. It is the time where people recall Jesus Christ’s passion, suffering, death, and resurrection for the sake of our redemption from our sins. There are some important things to do during the said season.



It starts at Ash Wednesday, the priest puts cross shaped ash in catholic people’s forehead. It symbolizes the sign of inner repentance. We observe fasting and abstinence, it is a form of sacrifice that we offer to our redeemer Jesus Christ, as we remember his sufferings and hardships he did for us humankind just to redeem us from our sins. Some people do penitence, especially in Good Friday. To commemorate how the Jews punished our savior. Visita Iglesia is also a part of our tradition during Lenten season, this is the practice of visiting 7 churches and recite the station of the cross. It is commonly done on Maundy Thursday or Good Friday.

But because of this pandemic, we were not able to do all of these because of the restrictions and protocols. So, do it silently.

  Unity towards ending pandemic As we face this pandemic cause by COVID-19, we Filipinos are greatly affected by it. People are suffering from this disease and some even died. Some people lost their jobs and resources. Some lost their homes, because they can no longer pay for their rents. A lot of us right now is experiencing poverty, hunger, and suffering. In order to overcome this pandemic, we need to unite and find ways to end this. We should help each other in any way we can, to ease each other’s burden. We must follow the rules and protocols, to prevent the spread of COVID-19 disease. I am looking forward for our country to be normal.
