The Pan-Ay Church and its Big Bell

I have less interest on topics of the past as compared to hubby’s great love for history and politics but whenever we visit remnants of our past, the patriot side of me do reign.

We have visited quite a few of Philippine Churches and the lack of upkeep is a distress of high concern.  How we wish we put “value” in words and in acts to relics that made the “us” today that will further bridge the present to the future.

The Pan-ay Church or the Sta. Monica Parish Church was a surprise to my general impression of our heritage.  The general structure demonstrated its original materials except for the belfry which obviously was modern and distinct from the rest of the design.

Day 4 Around Roxas City – Seafoods of Baybay Beach, Landmarks of the City Proper and Pan-ay Church

It was a rainy morning when we left Iloilo at about 830am for our 3-hour Roxas City trip.  Hubby’s seafood yen mounted atop as the “Welcome to Roxas City – Seafood Capital of the Philippines” marker flashed before us…. Ahem! The less-seafood-loving me just watched his glee.
