"Vivere Christus Est", simply means "to live in Christ", it is a simple diction of St. Paul. We knew that St. Paul, originally known as Saul of Tarsus was once a great persecutor of Christians. However, on his way to Damascus, he had a remarkable experiences. The Lord appeared to him and called him to be "the apostle to the Gentiles". And that was the beginning of his intense ministry of evangelization. From a persecutor into a very good preacher and defender of Christian faith.
Every January 25 of each year, the Heritage City of Vigan celebrates its fiesta in honor to their patron saint, St. Paul and also in commemorating St. Paul's conversion. The City Government of Vigan headed by their City Mayor, Mayor Eva Marie Singson-Medina conducted a lot of activities which made its fiesta a successful and extravagant one. One of its main highlights is the Longganisa Streetdancing and Showdown Competition wherein they feature one of Vigan's pride product "the Vigan Longganisa". Different schools from Vigan and from other municipalities competed in the said competition. And there are a lot more of activities that made the Ilocanos and even foreigner very happy and consider this one as one of their best moments in their lives.
These things only shows that The City Of Vigan is truly a unique place and a world class city. VIVA SENIOR SAN PABLO. VIVA VIGAN.
