Unfortunately, the site wh...Good evening Mr. Alas,<br /><br />Unfortunately, the site where I found the aforementioned anecdote is no longer around. I found it in the photo archives of Mr. Alex Castro on Flickr, but it seems he has deleted the account, and with it, the pertinent information. However, he still blogs regularly at his Multiply and Blogspot sites. The links are:<br /><br />http://arcastro57.multiply.com<br />http://viewsfromthepampang.blogspot.com<br /><br />Perhaps you can contact him through these channels. He also has other interesting galleries in his Multiply, including rariora from the early days of twentieth century Philippines. Truly fascinating stuff!<br /><br />And a postscript of sorts; if I remember correctly, it was discovered that the water from Filomena's tomb had been contaminated, and was likely to have brought more diseases than miracles. I think it was this point that the Catholic clergy decided to declare it a hoax. At least, that is the version I know. I look forward to hearing more about your research as well, as this obscure little anecdote has surely piqued my curiosty. =)<br /><br />P.P.S., I heard there's also an 'incorruptible' in Ilocos Norte. It was supposed to have been a child, who, while already dead for a decade, still showed little signs of decomposition.Archistrategoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05495771160792293715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28475889.post-13481818576154412462009-11-10T07:42:52.315+08:002009-11-10T07:42:52.315+08:00Good morning!

Me and my friends visited her chapel in Biñáñ a couple of days ago and I even wrote a blogpost about it.<br /><br />You may <a href="http://alasfilipinas.blogspot.com/2009/11/st-filomena-almarinez-de-binan-la.html" rel="nofollow">click here</a> to see it, but I'm not sure if you'll understand.<br /><br />Anyway, my friends and I are longing for the day that a serious investigation about this curious case be made. This is not just uncommon nor strange, but it bothers me that an incorruptible body of someone who used to be a prayerful Catholic is now being taken care of by those who aren't Catholics. Not that I'm complaining, really, but I do believe that it's about time for the <em>Iglesia Filipina Independiente</em> to come back to the loving arms of the true Church of God.<br /><br />Best regards,<br /><br /><a href="http://filipinoscribbles.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow">Pepe Alas</a>Pepe Alashttp://alasfilipinas.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
