                    [Title] => A visit at Culion
                    [Summary] => On Sunday afternoon, 27 May 1906, the first batch of lepers arrived in Culión. They were nearly 400 in number (365 came from the leper hospital in Cebu). They came in two ships. One man had died during the voyage. Many more would die on the island in the months and years to come.

The rest is forest. But among the buildings the most prominent is the church on a hilltop.

That church has a history.

It is a splendid panorama of sea and sky and mountain, for not only Culion but all the surrounding islands are all mountain. As I sat in the veranda watching the eastern sky redden at dawn, I thought of all the Jesuits who had served the Culión community these past ninety-nine years from 1906 onwards. Some of them came to mind who were more than ordinarily heroic.
