I am amazed about this city’s transformation from trash to posh!!

Just look at the pics below – - don’t you want to move to Philadelphia?! After taking pictures, I went back to church to hear mass and then had lunch with a buddy at a Vietnam Restaurant somewhere on Washington Avenue. I forgot the name of the place but the food was good.

Hello peeps!! http://gay-christians.org/2008/05/27/my-birthday-hello-peeps/ http://gay-christians.org/2008/05/27/my-birthday-hello-peeps/#comments Tue, 27 May 2008 13:39:33 +0000 gaychristians http://gay-christians.org/2008/05/27/my-birthday-hello-peeps/ Last Saturday, I celebrated my birthday with my buddies in Philadelphia. It was a straight bar (no offense, but I really enjoy hanging out at straight bars more than gay bars) and billiard hall. But before all that happened, I decided that I would go to church early and pay homage to my hometown’s patron saint, Sta. Rita de Cascia.

I woke up early (even though I didn’t sleep until 3:00 a.m. that morning – - long story), and headed up to Philadelphia where the National Shrine is located. The mass was supposed to be at 8:00 a.m. but I was late. I arrived there around 8:30 I think – - the mass had already ended. The bulletin said that another mass will be held at 10:00 a.m. so I decided to go to the park, take pictures of the city and then return for the 10:00 a.m. mass.

Here’s what I was able to accomplish…
