i took a quick scan of the msgr’s blog and i find it very informative and interesting. the church does keep some facts and infos about our past. i’ll just read through that for now. i wish there will be more. the only setback is that i do not speak or understand spanish. if ever i do, my understanding of it is very limited.

thanks, mr. solidon!

Churchill,

I think I saw a record of the establishment of the parish in Dolores at the parish office a few years ago. I’m not sure if it’s still there and what it was really about since I think it was written in Spanish.

this is really good to know. we can never truly and completely appreciate ourselves not unless we know and uderstand our past, our heritage. i wonder, does the church keep manuscripts/records of things past while religious and social communities were being established back then? just a thought…

bisan gad la haglipot kun matitirok madamo man gihap it. kun tikang ha jipapad/maslog ngadto ha guiuan mayda tagsa-tagsa nga estorya bag-o an mga español, maman-upay nga insperasyon kontra hit may halo nga kanan mga kastila. pero syempre di mawawara it kanan kastila nga records kay asya man an mga nahinabo. nasakop man kita. but if we are looking for our roots, we must look before the spanish time. usa kita nga mga estehanon. kun mayda ta hini record, mas magkakaurusa it aton mga igkasi. ma pulitika man o panginabuhi. Am proud to be Estehanon! Thanks Ced.

anybody who can give us some details of what we are before the Spaniards? what type of people we have in eastern samar? ano an ira mga panginabuhi? ano nga klase an ira kumunidad? sugad hit na-discredit an aton tunay nga roots kun han Spanish time la kita may estorya. malabas nga nangingibabaw na naman an mga ideya han mga mananakop. we need those part of history as the foundation of our bond as Estehanons rather than the record from the invaders time.
