Attention Pinoys: We're gonna have a party!!!

We've already started planning this year's (one day) Simbang Gabi celebrations! Yipee!!! I'm so excited. TFC-SJ Queen Bee (Nanette) and the Wizard of Music (Mark) met with me yesterday to brainstorm over the theme. They liked my idea of having a Barrio Fiesta-inspired celebration. Alright!!!

We will have the traditional dawn mass at the Old Mission Church, which will be followed by an awesome Barrio Fiesta at the St. Joseph Church Parish Hall. So everyone, kindly start washing your Filipiniana clothes and practice wearing you bakyas. See you at the Mission on December 22, 2007 at 6 am!
