Lindogon- Simala, Sibonga, Cebu Province

Why was the Marian Temple constructed?
“I am Stephen Abellaneda Aliponga or you can call me
"steff" as my nick... I'm residing in Greenhills, Lindogon,Sibonga,
Cebu, Phils- vicinity to Marian Monks....I didn't expect that my Brgy. or street
will become prominent and pious in present because of our Heavenly Mother Mary,
she keep make our Brgy. become holy...actually i heard out from the gossip
before that there is an old man name "Enconeo" over 100 years of
age,one of the native in Brgy. Lindogon, predicted that time will come Lindogon
will become holy ......"a couple of years from now, there will be a
lady,in white description, debonair will dwell in the solitude part of
Lindogon that keep the entire place holy.....she will call people to visit her
paradise and to worship her" Enconeo said.
Now, I am so grateful and glad that Mother Mary is here,
I really believe that she is the only powerful lady in the whole world with
Jesus Christ her holy son. Full of generosity & love, amiable,
infallible.....she will protect and redeem the people of Lindogon, she will
suppress disaster coming.....
thanks God......thanks a lot Jesus Christ and Mother
Mary.....”***original comment of S.A. Aliponga on http://www.pbase.com/jeanz/marian
Inscription at the metal plate in the second gate going to the temple
“This crown structure is memorial of the victorious and powerful intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary thru the Penitential Rosary Walk in 1998, against the killer epidemic that struck the place, where several lives of poor children and infants had died. Built to honor Mary on the 8th year anniversary of the Monks arrival in Lindogon.”

ReplyDeleteCraving for more info: Is the Marian temple owned by a congregation (e.g. Dominicans, Salesians, Franciscans, etc.); In what title of Mary is the shrine being built?; Any written document regarding the "intercession of the Virgin Mary"?
Thanks! Even if you cannot answer all. I'm glad I've found your page

tnx for dropping-by CJM, sori 2 say but i dont know their congregation. The Shrine was known as The Monastery of the Holy Eucharist.The monastery/shrine was built for Mama Mary devotees and being managed by Marian Monks. inside the monastery may gallery dun ng ibat ibang version ng virgin mary kaya indi q ma specify qng anung title.. dami dn dung nakapost na published/written stories regarding miracles after visiting the shrine. most popular nga pla ay ung pagluha ng statue ni mama mary ...
ReplyDeleteBeen here once and all I can say that this place is really awesome. Being here is a memorable experience
ReplyDeleteThat structure (looking at its facade) looks more of a palace than a temple. Beautiful!
