On Easter Sunday, 12 April 2020, the head priest of our village's Roman Catholic parish church, Nuestra Señora del Santissimo Rosario Pastoral Centre, went out in a car to the streets, with a duo of sacristans in tow, to bless the saint and cross images brought out by all of the Roman Catholic households. This was in lieu of a Visita Iglesia owing to the Covid-19 Luzon lock down. At about 0445 p.m., he got to our street, and a couple of Roman Catholic crosses from my household were among those that he blessed.
