The Bonifacio children put letters in a can of Rebisco biscuits for their father, Barangay captain Manuel Bonifacio, a former overseas Filipino worker from Batangas. The opening scene also features pictures of the family at different points in time.
In the present, Manuel is a widower who lives with his nephew Jun. On his birthday, he is greeted by the townsfolk as he celebrates another birthday, he also receives birthday greetings from his children as well but however late in the evening, he receives the news from Dr. Nelson that he has lung cancer and has only two to five months to live.
All of the Bonifacio children: Allan, Bryan, Charmaine, and Dexter arrive at their old household and vote to let Manuel decide the last will and testament. The children decide to visit the old family household for seven Sundays in spite of their own problems: Allan is competing with a rival business owner named Mr. Kim, Bry wants to meet a woman named Juliana Smith, Cha struggles with her husband Jerry's infidelity and Dex is on the run after a botched concert event.
Dex is the first to arrive at the old household after he is told by his roommates to hide somewhere else after some victims are able to locate his room. He stays for some time and goes out to buy some call credits, and there he meets Camille, his old friend. They have gone to Allan's store and realize that he is facing financial issues.
The next day, the Bonifacio children decide to host a birthday party for their own father after not showing up to his birthday proper. They ask Jun to stall their father in order to buy some time; however, Manuel catches up with the act and pretends to be surprised. A basketball game is later held at Marc's urging, but Allan and Bry argue in the middle of the game, involving Cha and Dex in the process and causing their father to bring out knives to cause them to stop fighting.
Manuel expresses disappointment to his Jun. Jun then asks his cousins to get along, even if they have to pretend. The next day, the siblings pretend to get along but however, they could not agree on how to bring their father to the funeral parlor. Manuel tells them to prepare an advanced eulogy, causing an awkward moment and prompting his children to finally agree on something.
While at the family household; Bry, Cha, and Dex get to talk about their past selves and there Manuel receives a call from the doctor that he was misdiagnosed and that he simply had tuberculosis. Manuel does not disclose the news to his children, fearing that they will abandon him again.
The next Sunday, the family goes to the beach. Manuel shows an unusual amount of vigor, causing his children to be suspicious of his true medical condition. Manuel shows his family a game wherein he picks out a letter from the old Rebisco can and the siblings have to guess who wrote the letter. This causes the siblings to realize how distant they have become over the years.
Dex stays with his father and buys ice cream together at Allan's store. While confronting Mr. Kim, Manuel realizes Allan's financial situation. Dex hides again from those who are chasing him by asking Camille to mislead them. While eating with Camille at the restaurant she is working in, Dex sees Jerry and a college student flirting with each other, causing Dex to hit Jerry. While at it, Manuel calls his Bry to help Allan regarding his financial situation.
Bry arrives at the household and gives financial assistance to Allan. In turn, Allan helps Bry open up about Juliana, who turns out to be the mother to his child, Gian, and helps him contact her and Gian. The next day, after Bechay's medical check-up, Dr. Nelson tells Allan and Bechay the truth about Manuel's condition, causing Allan to confront his father and Manuel to explain his coverup.
One evening, as the family prepares for dinner, Dex confronts Cha about what actually happened to Jerry and overhears the conversation between his father and Jun about his true medical condition. Bry gets a call from a fellow lawyer about what Dex allegedly did during the botched concert. This causes Bry to confront Dex and leads to the siblings fighting each other verbally because of their shortcomings. Because of this, the siblings leave as Manuel laments about what transpired.
The next day, Cha evicts her husband; Allan returns to his store; Dex returns to his old room and Bry receives a message from Juliana. Allan laments about the state of his incomplete house; however, his son tells him about what he feels about his father, causing Allan to make amends to Bry and find the other siblings. The siblings help Bry meet Juliana and Gian.
The siblings then go to the cemetery where their late mother is buried. They see their father talking to her grave, lamenting about how he felt like a failure in being a father. The siblings say their promised eulogy to their still-living father and make a loving embrace.
The movie ends with Allan's store being relaunched while Mr. Kim's brother arrives for his store's groundbreaking, causing both sides to taunt each other and challenging the family to a dance showdown, with Mr. Kim's brother losing to the family.
Writing for Rappler, Oggs Cruz praised the story and the acting performances of the cast, particularly Ronaldo Valdez playing the patriarch but criticized for some scenes and dialogues where it became a softer version of the director's previous works.[6]
In previous years, we has an Advent wreath on the way into worship and replaced that with a seven candle stand to show the same season is lengthened. We do not have a choir and music is by piano except on fourth Sundays when it is guitars, dulcimer and drum. I used O Come, O Come Emmanuel in the spot of a hymn of praising with verses 1 and 2 in week one, verses 1 and 3 in week two and so on.
Preaching reflected seasonal themes found in the texts each week. Music was a huge challenge, but we made it work. This needs improving over time. Some hymns from the Lutheran Book of Worship helped us expand available music on the fly.
In earlier years, King of Peace offered materials I created on Celebrating Advent in the Home (seewww.kingofpeace.org/advent/ ). My wife and I revised the booklet this year to take in a seven-week Advent. It is online here:Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord. Victoria and I also feel that an Adventen discipline is in order, hopefully different from Lent. This would take thought and preparation, but could be important. I think suggesting that families take on an Advent discipline specifically designed to counter the rampant concumerism of the season is the direction to go.
Why not make Advent even more counter-cultural at a time of year when the message of the culture (Buy More Stuff to Be Happy) most needs to be overturned? Notice the Sunday readings this year. Consider how a longer Advent might be a helpful antidote to the season, particularly if it starts before the post-Thanksgiving rush. Decide whether or not you want to make the move to a longer season of anticipation next year.
I have experienced personally and have worked with many people in dealing with grief. There is a danger in cutting it too short, in not letting it do its work with us so we can grow. But we can also hang on to our losses too much; we can keep rehashing and reliving and re-dying our losses to the point where our lives are experienced through the rear view mirror. But Easter comes anyway.
The women were amazed and ran from the empty tomb in fear. The disciples thought the women were crazy when they heard that Jesus was alive. Doubts ran through their heads, even with the resurrected Christ right in front of them. There is something about us that resists resurrection. But God gives it anyway.
There is a pattern to our existence: Life, death, resurrection. We experience death all the time. No doubt about it. But, also without a doubt, God always moves us toward transformation, always toward new life. It may happen in these seven weeks, it may happen later on. But no matter how devastating your deaths are, God is always moving you toward Easter, and the new life it brings. No matter what time of year.
