My daughter successfully fulfille her role as hermana mayor for a Patron Saint of a barangay here. The novena was conducted well, the procession and the mass, and the feast the food stuff was through a well known caterer. My daughter gave all her hearts out for the event: having the venue cemented and tiled, having a garden around the altar, ,etc. And spending 6 numbers for the caterer.
However later on I learned that there were lot of dynamics. The hermana emeritus, who owns the most number of saints in this town reprimanded her over the phone when she made suggestions. Another "Touch me Not episode. Noli me Tangere It was uncalled for since this was a voluntary job, and done for religious fervor. And furthermore her coterie of entities whose genders were unsure of had intrigues and gossips flying all around. This was unexpected in a religious organization. The gender confusion mIght have something to do with this and holier than thou attitude for having the most saints.
The lady perhaps was not aware of the support we made to the husband during the years, with 7 number in sales and rentals to their office properties. They should not have done this to my daughter, our of respect, and the rest out of their professional standing and also their religious status in the town. I did not find anything wrong with the performance of my daughter. No one thanked her, the venue that was used (my house and lot) and the huge expenses for the event.
Will the gender confused change, or this lady who has divine mentality? We ask the Lord for forgiveness of our trespasses and may we have learned our lesson in dealing with such events, and may the person who did this to our family live healthy and strong
We should have learned hard lessons from this event, grew wiser and sgtronger
