Filipinos Are Called To Be

The Culture Of Prosperity Deadens Us; We Are Thrilled If The Market Offers Us Something New To Purchase; And In The Meantime All Those Lives Stunted For Lack Of Opportunity Seem A Mere Spectacle; They Fail To Move Us.

In Our Ecclesiastical Region There Are Priests Who Don't Baptize The Children Of Single Mothers Because They Weren't Conceived In The Sanctity Of Marriage. These Are Today's Hypocrites. Those Who Clericalize The Church. Those Who Separate The People Of God From Salvation.

Let Us Protect With Love All That God Has Given Us!

Holiness Doesn't Mean Doing Extraordinary Things, But Doing Ordinary Things With Love And Faith.

I Want To Remind Priests That The Confessional Must Not Be A Torture Chamber But Rather An Encounter With The Lord’s Mercy Which Spurs Us On To Do Our Best. A Small Step, In The Midst Of Great Human Limitations, Can Be More Pleasing To God Than A Life Which Appears Outwardly In Order But Moves Through The Day Without Confronting Great Difficulties. Everyone Needs To Be Touched By The Comfort And Attraction Of God’s Saving Love, Which Is Mysteriously At Work In Each Person, Above And Beyond Their Faults And Failings.
