“Witnessing a canonization of a chapel into a parish is not just an honor, but a grace bestowed upon God’s people. It is a celebration as well as an appropriate occasion to remember with gratitude all those who labored selflessly for the development of the church. A Parish is first and foremost a community, and to this end each parishioner has a commitment to be a missionary.” These are just some of the words from Archbishop Ledesma which struck me most.

As for me, I had witnessed a rare occasion in the Catholic Church and privileged enough to see the consistency of God’s faithfulness to His people. It is by grace that I attended the Eucharistic Celebration as the Diocese of Cagayan de Oro aptly christened the said parish. With these, I am twice blessed
