Catholics and Cultures is an initiative of the Rev. Michael C. McFarland, S.J. Center for Religion, Ethics and Culture at the College of the Holy Cross, an American Jesuit university in Worcester, Massachusetts. This article, drawing on the Dularawang Bulacan Foundation's own production history and reporting from Malolos, is an academically hosted descriptive account rather than a peer reviewed study; use it for present day community organization, funding and the panata, or vow, motive participants describe, not for settled historical dating.
