Virtual Visita Iglesia? Click.

Rappler offers a multimedia tour of 14 Philippine Catholic churches in a virtual Visita Iglesia as part of a week-long package called Holy Week Online. Holy Week for Catholics formally opens on Palm Sunday, marking the start of events leading up to the death of Jesus Christ. 

It ends with Easter Sunday, when he rises from the dead and brings salvation to the world. Some of the faithful visit churches (Visita Iglesia) to pray and reflect on the passion and death of Christ. If you’re unable to do the traditional Visita Iglesia, go on a virtual tour with Rappler’s multimedia package, which brings together visuals, music, and one-minute Bible readings to give the faithful time to pause in today’s fast-moving, stressful times. For the virtual Visita Iglesia, a version of the Stations of the Cross by the Vatican’s Office for the Liturgical Celebrations of the Supreme Pontiff serves as guide.
