While most malls around the country host Sunday masses in some obscure hallway filled with plastic chairs with a makeshift altar, some malls have built niches or transformed unused spaces into places of worship. And Ilonggos should be proud that one of the newest malls in Iloilo City has actually a chapel located in a prime spot and one that boasts both beauty and serenity. The St. Joseph Chapel at Festive Walk Iloilo is located in one of its al fresco areas known as The Deck located at the 3rd level.
