IAU accepts prayer petitions to Sto. Niño
THE Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) has approved the request of Indiana Aerospace University (IAU) in Mactan to drop flowers on Jan. 14 from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the Mactan-Cebu Channel during the fluvial procession.
CAAP allowed the flying school to use the airspace of Mactan-Cebu Harbor channel at an altitude of 500 ft.
IAU chief pilot Capt. Stephen Toring appealed to Sto. Niño devotees to drop their flowers and prayer petitions on or before Jan. 14 to designated areas at theBasilica Minore del Sto. Niño; St. Therese of Lisieux church, IAU Town Center, Lapu-Lapu City; IAU Aerodome, Ormoc City Airport (for Leyte devotees); Indiana Condotel on D. Jakosalem Street, Cebu City.
Devotees can monitor Captain Toring, pilot in command of RPC-50 at cellphone number 0927-8611698 and Capt. Justin Castro (0933-1587957) , pilot in command of RPC-2891, as to when their flowers and prayer petitions would be dropped to the Infant Jesus.
Agustinian priest Rev. Fr. Mario Mijorada said the sacrifice by the devotees in offering flowers and prayer petitions has a great chance that their prayers would be answered because the Holy Child Jesus is a lover of the sea. For inquiries, call Indiana School of Hotel and Tourism at 316-0750.
