The last church in our Bisikleta Iglesia itinerary was the Church of the Abandoned in San Roque, Marikina City.  The Parish Priest there is Fr. Nante Tolentino who is first cousin of Hannah.   VM looked for the good Father and we found him at his church residence.  He welcomed us, posed with us for pictures, and even blessed (sprinkled us with Holy Water) us and our bikes.

Thank you Father, and as Pope Francis has enjoined Christendom, we will pray for you and other priests always.

                                Jess and Gerry;  the Jollibee anchor taking advanced order

One of the bigger discussion yesterdays that consumed our ride was where to eat.  Initially it was McDo at Cainta, however the SG was not friendly.   Although the store was empty, he shooed our bikes away.  Then when we were in Imelda cor Karangalan, we were about to enter Jollibee and Mcdo. Then some said, we would rather be in Eastwood. near Padre Pio.  We were not able to enter Padre Pio, and when we were in Sta Clara, the loud voice said, after having decided that we would sub De la Strada for Padre Pio, we would eat at Petro Jollibee and so we did.

Even though Jollibee is pretty much organized, our coming upset their system a beat.

So much about debating where to eat.

Angono, Rizal  Philippines   | April 3, 2015

                             Last church to be visited was in San Roque.Marikina City.  Recyclists pose with Fr. Nante Tolentino, cousin of Hanah (pamangkin ni Smith)  He even blessed us with Holy Water and our bikes

We had the annual ritual of doing the Bisikleta Iglesia (visit of 7 churches) to do the Way of the Cross as a form of penitential sacrifice.  However, instead of visiting churches at the Eastern Rizal, the group, decided c/o Pres Luis and adviser VM to go westward and towards MM.  So the FB page said we assemble at 5:30 am and leave for the Visita Iglesia:   Taytay, Cainta, Manggahan, Padre Pio, Sta Clara, Concepcion and Church of the Abandoned in San Roque Marikina City
