Jubilee

Saturday St Martin de Porres Hospital celebrated it’s 50th Anniversary with a huge Jubilee celebration.  The Hospital has been preparing for this the last year.  Most of the buildings received a face lift with new paint inside and out.  Much of the cement work throughout the hospital was replaced and the grounds were manicured.  The Celebration began with a Mass concelebrated by 4 Bishops and 46 Priests.  Numerous civic and government officials were in attendance.  Portable pavilions were erected and over 1200 people attended.  The weather was beautiful and the normal daily rains threated but never materialized.  It was a joyous occasion and Terry and I feel blessed that we were here to witness it.
