Paraiso de Avedad’s “Litania de Maria” Grand Marian Festival Opens in San Pablo City. SAN PABLO CITY, LAGUNA - A spectacular Marian activity has begun at Paraiso de Avedad as the “Litania de Maria Grand Marian Festival” blessedly opened with a grand event that brought devotees, families, and visitors together to honor the Blessed Virgin Mary. More than 70 images of the Blessed Mother were on full display, providing the faithful with a striking visual representation of the many titles, devotions, and forms of Marian worship. The Marian Exhibit is open to the public from August 10 to 15. Meanwhile, the grand celebration is set to have its highlight on August 16 with a Marian Procession, during which the images of the Virgin Mary and the Marian devotion on display will venture outside the exhibit to mark the closing ceremony of this year’s Marian Festivities. Offering a spectacular backdrop for the event, San Antonio I in San Pablo City, Laguna, is the perfect place to relax and unwind. This renowned leisure resort destination has a lot to offer in terms of restaurant, café, and food venues, so it’s no surprise that it draws in droves of visitors every day.
