📰 The Infant Jesus Shrine witnessed a spiritually enriching day as devotees gathered in large numbers to participate in the second day of the Novena in honor of the Infant Jesus. The day’s theme, “Hope lives where family gathers,” resonated throughout the liturgical celebrations, highlighting the importance of unity and hope within families.

The highlight of the day was the Jubilee of MFC (Marriage and Family Commission) families, which included a special prayer service dedicated to all families. This service emphasized the role of family as a foundation of faith and love, aligning perfectly with the Novena’s theme. Nine Novena Masses were celebrated in various languages, reflecting the diverse and inclusive nature of the shrine community. Each Mass offered devotees the opportunity to deepen their faith and seek blessings from the Infant Jesus.

In the evening, following the 6.00 pm Mass, a solemn Rosary procession took place within the shrine premises. Devotees holding lit candles walked in prayerful reflection on the mysteries of the childhood of the Infant Jesus. The statue of the Infant Jesus was carried in procession, with a sense of devotion and reverence filling the air.

The day’s events provided a profound spiritual experience, leaving devotees inspired and united in their faith as they continued the journey of the Novena.
