The FAAGW Sinulog Festival was held on Sunday, Jan. 15, 2023, at Saint Francis of Assisi Catholic Church. The festival included a faithful celebration of the Holy Mass in Tagalog by Fr. Roger Lumbre and Fr. Max Blitz. Preceding the Mass, Mrs. Fey Barles introduced the attendees to information regarding Santo Niño de Cebú and the Sinulog Festival that occurs in the Philippines. Many participants, including altar servers and dancers, processed into Mass with the "karo" and image of Santo Niño. Following Holy Communion, Fr. Roger blessed the children and Santo Niño statues brought by participants. The congregation followed a procession from the church to the Cana Hall for a reception and Potluck Dinner. During the reception, guests enjoyed Filipino cuisine and cultural presentations.
The FAAGW looks forward to hosting another Sinulog Festival in 2024.
