[edit] Religious Life
Cecilia was born on July 16, 1693, in Calumpit, Bulacan to half-Kapampangan parents. Together with her sister Dionisia Talangpaz, they settled down near the shrine of the Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Manila. Their devout life attracted the attention of the Recollects who were taking care of the shrine and by July 1725, they gave the sisters the habit of tertiaries and gathered them in a beaterium.
