Clermont Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 Their chanting is a calling to get the lazy buggers out of bed to go to church, think on the flip side, if your awake at 4 am, many a good thing can happen if the mind wanders, and you might get a answer to your thoughts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you don't mind my bedroom window is right here and its 4am and your chanting is disturbing my rest. If its all the same to you can you turn down the volume as you pass or detour to another street? if they are reasonable people it shouldn't be a problem. My street is a cul-de-sac horseshoe,sort of in and back out to the main road. NOT in the path to the Guadalupe Church. I would understand if my street leads directly to the church and they HAD to walk pass my place to get there Do you have a garden hose ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldbrick Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) It is their country and their religious freedom. You could buy some earplugs and close the window.

CoffeeRulzMe Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 I see no problem with the prayer procession. I fact, I like hearing it. It's a welcome change from the West; where they have removed the 10 Commandments from public view, etc. And now, look how toxic that society has become. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lately the last 3 saturday nights at exactly 4am I hear HAIL MARY, over and over by 5 or 6 filipino women walking slowly down my street. I sleep with windows open most nights because this neighborhood is quiet. No dogs barking etc etc. I hear them before they get walk past my place holding candles and it seems as they turned the corner I hear them singing for the 1st time and not xmas carols. Is this a normal tradition or what? We had exactly the same when I lived in Dalaguete,we call it the travelling church. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problem with prayer procession except in the wee morning hour of 4am chanting loudly. How about soft chanting im sure God can still hear their prayers.

Dr. Shiva Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 We should be happy that there are still christian belief around. In Europe many countries are doing everything to turn them into a califate in 30 years. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
