It has been my family’s tradition to wake up early and go to church on the first day of the year. As we went our way to the church on the morning of New Year’s Day, the village guard informed us that there will be a mass to be held in the neighborhood chapel, the San Nicolas Chapel. Hence, we decided to take the short walk to the chapel, instead of going to the parish.
St. Nicolas Chapel is the neighborhood chapel located along the Zapote-Molino Road in Bgy. San Nicolas 1, Bacoor, Cavite. It was built in honor of San Nicolas de Tolentino, who was born on the year of 1245 in Tolentino, Italy.
Both residents and visitors of San Nicolas Chapel will certainly not miss the place because it is one of the famous landmarks of the village and other nearby subdivisions. Moreover, there is a large marker along the road.
There were only a few people inside when we arrived but more and more people arrived before the mass started. The chapel has a sitting capacity for 100 people but it can accommodate up to 150 to 200 churchgoers.
Happy New Year! Welcome 2013!
My husband and I were both born and grew up in Quezon City. We met in Las Pinas City, where we also started to raise our family. After living in the city for almost six years, we decided to move down the suburbs. Last May 2009, we moved to an apartment in Bacoor, Cavite and we have been living here for the past four years. This year is also our fourth New Year's Day celebration in Bacoor. And in our four years of stay in Cavite, I must admit that I get more attracted with the people, places, events, and of course, the food around the province; hence, I decide to put up this blog to share to everyone our great experience in this awesome province of Cavite.
