Chapel of the Holy Guardian Angel Opens - HAU's 75 Million Peso Project

The Holy Angel University (HAU) administration finally unveiled the newly built Chapel of the Holy Guardian Angel last December 09, 2009. The chapel was in commemoration and devotion to the Holy Guardian Angel which is the school and the city's patron figure.

The inaugural ceremony was graced by Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. Seated with her, along the front pews of the church during the holy mass was the university's president Dr. Arlyn Villanueva. Politicians such as Angeles city mayor Francis Blueboy Nepomuceno and mayoralty candidate Edgardo Pamituan were also among the many big names who graced the event. The Philippine Madrigal Singers serenaded the night of the celebration and performed some of their famous masterpieces.

The construction of this 75 Million-Peso chapel inside the HAU campus which started November of last year was spearheaded by Highspire Inc. And the overall structure of the retablo altar and interiors were designed by the well known Presidential Merit Award recipient, Willy Layug.
