Prayers for Bohol and Cebu

While we were all soundly oversleeping here in Manila (it's a holiday, after all,) a magnitude 7 earthquake hit Bohol and Cebu.

It was so powerful, it destroyed a lot of the old churches in Bohol, including the historic Loboc Church.

I've had the pleasure of visiting Bohol and some of its churches a few years ago, and it's quite saddening and upsetting to see the destruction of these beautiful houses of the Lord.

I pray for the people of Bohol and Cebu that they quickly rise up from this tragedy. And I pray that these heritage churches be restored to their former glory once the city has gone back to normal.
