Easter has come with a big bang at Regina Rica. For the first time, we celebrated the Holy Week liturgical celebration at the Regina Rica chapel. The Easter vigil was celebrated in a quiet way because we do not have sufficient electrical power to light street lights and to brighten fully the chapel.  But in spite of the dim lights the brightness of the resurrection of Jesus never dimmed in our hearts.

The Dominican Sisters of Regina Rosarii, mission partners and volunteers celebrated Easter with gift giving that included Easter eggs. We thank our Lady for the thousands of pilgrims we have ministered to during the holy week. Our daily newspapers have acclaimed RICA as a new Lenten destination for holy week together.

Jesus is risen! And amidst thousands of sunflowers at Regina RICA that have blossomed on Easter day, we too have a joyful smile in our hearts.

We wish you all a very very bright Easter celebration. Jesus is the light of our life. Please remember that our Lady  waits for you on top of the hill. She wants to share with you the joy of Easter. come to RICA and experience Summer among  smiling sunflowers. One pilgrim priest predicted: walang pumupunta Kay Mama Regina

Rosarii  na di maka  uwi ng galak at biyaya ng Panginoon.

One with you in the eternal now,

Sister Eppie and sisters
