HOLY WEEK 2008 AT BUNGTOD-ANINAW

IMAGES OF THE HOLY WEEK AT BUNGTOD-ANINAW

It is summer, although there are drizzles
during the Holy Week of 2008.
The sun rises over the mountains that face
Bungtod-Aninaw.
The silhouetted trees block the total view
of the sunrise, but then they also provide
the contrasts between light and shadow.










































With sunrise, the sun spreads its light
across the valley. It is parched with the
hot sun of the summer days. The ricefields
go fallow as there is no water to grow the
rice seeds. Rice cultivation will have to wait
till the middle of the year when the rains
come.

For now, the farmers plant vegetables:
beans, cucumber, kalabasa, eggplants,
tomatoes, pepper.











































The mornings of Bungtod-
Aninaw are dazzling. The
sun's rays make the fields
smile. There is a golden
aura enveloping the whole
of nature.


The lone carabao in the
field knows it is so
privileged to have the
fields all to itself.
Nature's bounty - even
in summer - is without
limits.




















The blue sky
announces a fine
day for all.
Below it blesses
Bungtod-Aninaw
wrapped in the
fading mist of the
early morning,
trees surrounding
it as if guards.
Solitude rewards












the pilgrims who find their way to Bungtod-Aninaw in the sacred days of the Holy Week. The sun will make sure they find what they look for.

EASTER AT BUNGTOD-ANINAW

KITE-FLYING AT BUNGTOD-
ANINAW.
Arvin teaches his son,
Anthony, how to fly a
kite while Mom, Yang,
and Fr. Reynante watch.


Bungtod-Aninaw is ideal
for kite flying with the
wind that blows across
the hill and the grassy
slopes.

Since it was Easter Sunday, and the name of the place is BUNGTOD-ANINAW,
JESUS OF THE RESURRECTION
CENTER OF SPIRITUALITY,
Fr. Reynante decided to hold
the FIRST FIESTA of Bungtod-
Aninaw. Those who attended
included Arvin and Yang Santillan,
Diday, Boy Ong, Karl and Mrs.
Jaectin.

In the morning of Monday, March 24, 2008, there was a meeting of the B-LGU of Camanga, attended by Edgar Aranas (the Barangay Captain), the members of the SB, a representative from the Province's DPHW, DAR and the Office of the Mayor of Tukuran. This was held at the Barangay Hall. The agenda was to discuss the proposed Water for Life Project of Camanga. Fr. Reynante helped to document the discussion. The DPHW engineer presented his proposed plans for the setting up of the water project. There was a discussion as to the sources of funds including the provincial and congressional offices and other agencies. Hopefully, if this water project pushes through it will help Bungtod-Aninaw that needs an alternative water source.
