Preface to the Santo Niño de Cebu Devotion
In the light of the exhortation of the Lord Jesus Christ to bring the Gospel to all the corners of the earth, His apostles, disciples and missionaries throughout the ages have spread His teachings everywhere through word-of-mouth preachings and the printed word. When the medium of the radiob-- and subsequently televisionn-- came about, the bearers of His Word also make use of the facility of such farther-and-wider-reaching audio and/or visual information transmissions. Hence, came about the prayers-on-air and televised masses.
With the advent of the latest innovation of information and communications technology (ICT) in the form of the more globally-accessible Internet and the Mobile Phone, this immigrant-initiator (with the collaboration of other spiritually-imbued devotees) of this humble spiritual offerings to the Santo Nino (Holy Infant Jesus), himself His lifetime devotee, has thought of further spreading His devotion principally to overseas Filipino devotees out in the further corners of the earth eking out a spartan living, thru online, because they have no access to the numerous Roman Catholic houses of prayers (churches) of the homeland being interimly in foreign places where there are no Roman Catholic churches at all because of religious differences, or if there be any, too far away from the workplace. Hence, this humble santoninoGODevotion which can be read and/or heard thru one's computer or mobile phone (with internet access) thru this Website.
