Simbáng Gabí

Simbáng Gabí [pronounced “Sim-BONG gah-BEE”] is a nine-day celebration beginning on Dec. 15 in which Filipinos prepare for Christmas.

December 15 to 23, all are invited to join as a spiritual offering in preparation for celebrating the birth of our Lord Jesus. This December we will celebrate the Novena of Simbáng Gabí with our neighboring parishes.
