The newly-named priests to the Catholic Church’s roster of missionaries of mercy are Fr. Jhoen Buenaventura, Fr. Joseph Quicho, and Fr. Jesus Navoa, all from the Diocese of Balanga. Buenaventura is parish priest of Santa Gemma Church in Barangay Mountain View in Mariveles, Quicho is spiritual director of Our Virgen Milagro- sa Del Rosario College Seminary in Balanga City, and Navoa is parish priest of Holy Family in Balsik, Hermosa. “We are very grateful and this is for the good of all.

He said that the pope has selected priests from every continent to act as his special ambassadors of mercy in the world. The appointed priests are giv- en the faculties to absolve certain sins reserved to the Holy See. The three Bataan priests were named to the post with two other priests from Bulacan.
