A shallow cave with an altar, Ina ng Awa Cave is considered the first church in Barangay Sta. Lucia. Devotees go here to pray for mercy and forgiveness for one’s sins. At the right side of the cave is a short and narrow passageway where devotees walk on their knees while praying for forgiveness.
The province of Quezon is a place known not only for its natural beauty and wonders, it also lays claim to sites that have long been shrouded in tales of the mystical and the supernatural. At the foot of Mt. Banahaw, itself a subject of mysteries, the Ina ng Awa and Sta, Lucia falls will definitely try to convice you that these are indeed places of awe and wonder.
Ina ng Awa is near Kinabuhayan, at the foot of Mt. Banahaw, and is also believed to be mystical. The mystical caves are located in this area. Many small caves and rock shelters were given Biblical names and some also serve as altars for the sects. Some, like the Santong Husgado Cave, test the purity of the spirit of those who enter. The ones with clean spirits can easily pass through and the unclean ones are overcome by rocks inside the cave, preventing them from continuing.
