We also visited the San Agustin Cathedral
We came here to see the beautiful stained glass
The First Archbishop of Cagayan de Oro was from New York and the stained glass was gifted to the cathedral from the Sacred Heart Sisters from New YorkThey are a century old and there are 7 panels around the churchThis cross travelled to different parts of the Philippines
You will see at the back of the cross the different places it visited and travelled to
At the back of the Cathedral is a nice view of the Cagayan de Oro River. You can see a building at the back in this photo – that was the hotel ( Prycegas hotel ) we stayed in before when we first went to Cagayan de Oro 🙂
Cagayan de Oro River – Upstream is where they do rafting. Vehind is a Mall, Convention Center and hotel development by the Pelaez family which stopped due to typhoon Sendong but now being continued
Blessed Sacrement Prayer Rooom
I notice a lot of these type of signs in the provinces. They are just made of tarp sometimes and I feel they are very effective

My Dad insisted because he said, we are related to the Archbishop!! 🙂 Archbishop Antonio Javellana Ledesma!!
