The first BEC Baranggay Festa at Brgy. Central I, Palompon, Leyte was celebrated last May 12, 2010 by a celebration of the Holy Mass on the said date at their chapel located beside the municipal pier and their newly constructed Baranggay Hall.
Though the new baranggay hall is not yet finished, they allocated the old baranggay hall as part chapel, since most of the members of the same Roman Catholic Church.
As of now, they are in quandary about their Baranggay patron saint which as of this writing is Saint Michael Archangel. They have agreed that their patron saint is "Our Lady of Hope" since Mary the queen mother is the patroness of the Philippines and May is the month of flowers for Mary, but since the image bought from Cebu is St. Michael's there is no other recourse but to use the image available at the moment. .
.Though the heat of the sun is already in their midst the Holy Mass have to go on. What's a little heat coming from above, as long as the people of the said Baranggay are united in their first ever Central I BEC fiesta.
