Little Souls Sisters
We discovered a very peacful place in Tagaytay that is very conducive to meditation and silent prayer, the Convent of the Littlle Souls Sisters. The chapel was very much similar to the Pink Sisters convent only this time, the motif is peach. From the paint, the seats, electric fans and even the sisters dressess are all colored peach. One can even write their petitions so that the sisters can help you pray for these petitions.
We visit the convent to hear mass every 2nd Sunday of the month. It is also on this Sunday that you can actually view and touch the miraculous Cross from Belgium. This Sacred Crucific has healed countless faithfuls but according to Sister Marie Rose, its not the cross nor the holy oil that cures but the faith one has in the Lord. A a small bottle of the holy oil can be requested from the small store at the side of the chapel.
The Sacred Crucifix
The Sacred Crucific known to have healed countless faithful, is at the convent of the Little Souls Sisters in Tagaytay City.
Its origin is unknown, but it is said to have been made by a very holy person, a Monk perhaps, centuries ago. Only two of these rare Cruifixes are known to exist, and one of them was given in Chevremont, Belgium, to the Philippine Chapter of the Legion of Little Souls, the Catholic lay movement tasked with the mission of making Jesus better known and loved.
The Crucifix has been immersed in very refined oil and blessed, providing the Holy Oil the same properties of the Crucifix.
May all who use this Holy Oil be healed with their faith in the boundless and Infinite love of the Merciful Heart of Jesus.
The Little Souls Sisters Convent is located at Little Souls Road Mahogany Avenue, Maharlika West Tagaytay City.
