What is Simbang Gabi?
Simbang gabi starts every December 16 or 15th for the anticipated mass and ends on the 24th. The 9 days Novena mass or Misa de Gallo (literally Mass of the Rooster), is the mass celebrated before the rooster crows (tilaok) for the farmers before going to the fields to start planting. An early church bell at 3AM will wake up the town for them to prepare for the 4am mass.
Ang Simbang gabi ay nagsisimula tuwing Disyembre 16 o 15 para sa inaasahang misa at nagtatapos sa ika-24 ng Disyembre. Ang 9 na araw na Novena mass o Misa de Gallo (literal na Misa ng Tandang), ay ang misa na ipinagdiriwang bago tumilaok ang manok (tilaok) para sa mga magsasaka bago pumunta sa bukid upang magsimulang magtanim. Isang maagang kampana ng simbahan sa 3AM ang magigising sa bayan para maghanda sila para sa 4am na misa.
