Filipino Mass Highlights
December 28, 2025
Today we celebrated our last FILIPINO MASS of 2025!
There were so many families at Mass today. Our church was filled with the sounds of our children singing, praying, and worshiping together. With Kuya Marcus accompanying on violin, their voices made our celebration of the Feast of the Holy Family even more memorable.
Special thanks to Robin Prudencio and members of the adult choir who helped prepare our children for our Mass celebration.
October 26, 2025
A beautiful gathering of faith and community took place as the Filipino Catholic community in Charlottesville came together for our special Filipino Mass. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Fr. Josh Christian Indadano for presiding over the Mass and sharing a meaningful homily that reminded us of our roots, our resilience and the love that binds us as one family in Christ.
Thank you to everyone who participated, volunteered, sang, served, and prayed with us. Your presence made the celebration truly special.
