Little Quiapo is the resto behind SSS, along Malakas - nearest cross steets would be Matapang on one end and VLuna Road at the other end and their main thing is Filipino cuisine.
Those of you who saw Belle's picture of Fr. Minch at Inday's would note that he has white hair, and is much thinner now although he pretty much looks the same. He said he is a cancer survivor. I guess that's part of the reason he's thinner. He also got to view our pictorial records, the 2 huge scrapbooks, courtesy of Alice.
So he's based in Iloilo and is leaving on the 13th of this month. Fr. Ces says he goes to Manila every now and then to do things. When I asked what things - he said - visit the doctor (physician is the more accurate term), attend seminars and the like. He said he was also open to be spiritual director for retreats .... DALE this answers your question.
He also asks for prayers from everyone, and promises to say prayers for us all also.
He also said i should go to confession sooner than ,,,,,, rarely. Every week is his recommendation. I guess he saw the shock in my eyes because he said he knows it is hard, but to try to do it anyway. i told him i have a personal confession everyday, but he said confessing to a priest gives one the assurance that one is forgiven.
i was going to tell him that i didnt need the assurance because i was very confident i was forgiven. Fr. Ces did not comment on this exchange.
Btw, Fr. Ces knows how to get in touch with Willie Olaer, not directly - but through Willie's brother.
*** i had to go back to work, but i was lucky to get a personal blessing before i left

Fr. Minch is a member of the FB Sayans group Batch75
