Sacred Spaces at RICA: The RICA Labyrinth
As a School of Contemplation, RICA has spaces for meditation, such as the labyrinth.
This tree is called Akleng Gubat (different from Akleng Parang). It is a wild tree indigenous to the Philippines and has one of the most beautiful grains
Trees like this abound at the Garden of Indigenous Forest Trees or GIFT at RICA.
Lady in Purple
Mama Mary is wrapped in warm purple as the day ended at RICA.
She looks serene and content, happy that thousands of pilgrims visited her Son today, and many of them followed the Stations of the Cross.

The Stations of the Cross at RICA are unique. Not only it is white, but it also resembles the Absent Presence of Cross
The empty space inside the frame may look as if Jesus is absent. But our eyes of faith will see Him there – his Divine Presence is fully alive.

It’s already morning but the Rosaline candles offered by yesterday’s pilgrims are still burning
Rosaline Candles are special – they last longer, they have healing scents and they are smokeless.
It is a Serene Saturday morning at RICA. Mama Mary waits for you to spend your Lenten Weekend with her and her Son Jesus
Please wear proper church attire that will also allow you to walk. Walking is essential to the sacrifice offered by pilgrims.
We praise and thank you Almighty Father for the weekend has come, even if we continue to pray for those people who work at night and work on weekends to support their loved ones
We pray for healing for those who are suffering in pain and those who are currently admitted to hospitals.
RICA Retreat is also for the young
The Millennial and Post-Millennial generations are known to embrace authentic experiences that bring newness to their lives.
