Sinjin’s Visita Iglesia for the Holy Week Season: Sto. Rosario Church

Fifth in a series

Our fifth stop during our observance of the Visita Iglesia last Holy Thursday (April 9, 2009) was at the Sto. Rosario Church located at P. del Rosario St., Cebu City.

The Sto. Rosario Church was named after its patron, Our Lady of the Holy Rosary. Completed on August 22, 1933, the church is now one of the busiest churches in the city.
