An Extra-Liturgical Activity • It is an Easter Sunday ritual done before dawn at exactly 4am • Reenacts the Risen Christ’s meeting with His mother • Originated from Marinduque
It is performed in the churchyard under a specially prepared arch where the veiled image of the Virgin Mary has been placed • A child dressed as an angel that is on a high platform being held up by ropes, lifts the mourning lambong (veil of the grieving)off image of the Mother • Confetti is thrown into the air and songs of joy are sung to celebrate the Risen Christ
How is it Performed • The church bells are rung and there is a procession of the images of Christ and His mother that ends up in the church • The participants in the procession are segregated by gender • The men follow the image of Christ while the women follow the image of Mary • The procession ends with the two groups meeting inside the church where the mass is held
What does it Signify? • How powerful God is for he sacrificed his only son and brought Him back to life again to save us all from our sins • New beginning for us because Jesus gave us a new life by saving us from our sins
Music Used • Songs of Praise • Joyful Hymns
At Present Time • The Salubong is still being performed on Easter Sunday • It is most popular in places like Marinduque, Cebu, Bulacanand Rizal • Now, instead of using a toddler to lift the veil from the image of Mary, they now use stronger 12 year olds
