Javanese has a tradition to celebrate seventh month pregnant called Mitoni. Yesterday, my boss held a mass to celebrate the seventh month pregnant of his daughter. The mass was celebrated by three priests: Rm. Yus and Rm. Pontan from Jakarta and Rm. Markus from Bogor. Since yesterday was Pentecost, the theme was adjusted to Pentecost. Prayers were said for showers of Holy Spirit and of course, prayers for a would-be mother and her 7th month old baby in her womb.

I have been there at Puncak since Saturday noon. I spent a night at Wisma Indosiar.

The mass’s successful, so was the party. Everybody ‘s so happy. Lots of food, lots of gifts, lots of blessings.
