We completed the first ten churches of our Visita Iglesia in Ilocos Norte. Then we continued our Holy Thursday pilgrimage southward into Ilocos Sur. Four more historic churches awaited us there. The transition between the two provinces was smooth. The landscape subtly shifted from wide open plains to more clustered towns and rolling hills. Each bore silent testimony to the centuries-old Christian heritage of the region.

Here are the four churches we have visited in Ilocos Sur:

Minor Basilica of St Nicolas de Tolentino And Shrine of Sto Cristo Milagroso in Sinait

St. Mark the Evangelist Church in Cabugao

St. Augustine Church in Bantay

Minor Basilica of Our Lady of the Assumption in Sta. Maria
