A Historic Shift in Our Faith: A Message to the Loocnon Community
The wait is finally over. For years, we have watched our neighboring parishes gather every Friday to lift their petitions to the Black Nazarene, the Sacred Heart, and the Santo Niño. We have felt the absence of our own weekly rhythm—until now.
In a move that will redefine the spiritual life of our community, the Church has officially approved a monumental change.
The Announcement
Starting this year, the Basilica Minore del Santo Niño de Looc will officially establish the Weekly Friday Devotion to the Santo Niño.
While we have always honored the Blessed Mother on Saturdays—as she requested at Mount Carmel and Fatima—we are finally claiming Friday as a day of special grace for our beloved Patron. This makes us part of a grand tradition, ensuring that the fire of our faith burns just as brightly here in Looc as it does in the great basilicas across the country.
Key Details to Remember
| Event | Date / Schedule |
|---|---|
| Official Launch | April 24, 2026 |
| Significance | The Friday before the historic Kaplag Anniversary |
| Frequency | Every Friday thereafter |
| Purpose | To unite our parish in weekly prayer, petition, and thanksgiving to the Holy Child. |
Why This Matters
We are the only church in the region that has not yet held a dedicated Friday devotion to our Patron. This is not just a schedule change; it is a spiritual awakening. We are closing the gap and opening our doors wider for the miracles and blessings the Santo Niño has in store for us.
> "Let this be the beginning of a new chapter where every Friday, the streets of Looc lead to the feet of the Santo Niño."
