Pagsungko ni Ina (sa Ateneo de Naga) 2011


The noontime Angelus of Ateneo de Naga University on August 15 became more meaningful as the image of Our Lady of Penafrancia, Ina, carried by the voyadores (composed of faculty, staff, and students), visited the University. Ina was greeted by Physical Education students wearing their yellow uniforms as she entered the Christ the King Church.

University Chaplain Fr. Ritche B. Elot, S.J. facilitated a Welcome Liturgy for Ina with a prayer and Gospel reading. The Music Ministry of the Chaplaincy serenaded Ina with Marian songs, including the popular Penafrancia hymn Resuene Vibrante.

Theology classes, employees, and devotees took turns for the vigil in the afternoon. At 5 p.m., Fr. Jose C. Embile, S.J., celebrated a Mass. Outside the church, the University Band and students organized a procession for the departure of Ina.

At 6:20 p.m. Ina was brought back to the Cathedral by school staff and PE faculty. There, Ina was welcomed back with the Marian antiphon, Salve Regina.
