Young vendors

January 16, 2013 | 12:00am

AT THE BASILICA. Child vendors are aplenty at the Basilica del Sto.Niño especially now that there are novena masses. These children sell candles, prayer booklets, water, etc.

DISTURBANCE. An Ear informer said that while she has nothing against these children trying to earn a living, their presence can sometimes disturb devotees hearing mass. “Magasige og pamaligya bisan nagsugod na ang misa. Mamugos pa gyud. Ipaduol gyud sa imong nawng ang ilang baligya. Samok,” the informer said.
