    Fr. Charles Puthota's Blog May 16, 2021 From the Pastor’s Desktop Dear Parishioners of St. Elizabeth, 500 Years of Christianity in the Philippines, Our Parish Celebration : As you may be aware, the Church in the Philippines and the Filipino diaspora around the world are celebrating “500 Years of Christianity in the Philippines.” With joy and gratitude, we observe this occasion at St. Elizabeth Church this Sunday May 16, 2021 at the 11:30 a.m. Mass presided over by our Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone. You may recall that Pope Francis celebrated a special Mass at St. Peter’s Basilica on March 14 in Rome to mark the 500th anniversary of Christianity in the Philippines and urged the Filipinos to “persevere in the work of evangelization.” Joined him at the Mass were several representatives of the Filipino Church, including Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, the former Archbishop of Manila who is now prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples. Pope Francis recalled that when the Christian message first arrived in the Philippines five centuries ago, “You received the joy of the Gospel: the good news that God so loved us that he gave his Son for us. And this joy is evident in your people. We see it in your eyes, on your faces, in your songs and in your prayers… I want to thank you for the joy you bring to the whole world and to our Christian communities.” The Catholic Church in the Philippines inaugurated the year-long celebration on Easter Sunday April 04, 2021 to last through the end of April 2022.

  • Philippine Cardinal, Human Rights Advocate, Named to Manila Archdiocese
    Philippine cardinal, human rights advocate, named to Manila archdiocese MANILA, Philippines (CNS) — Pope Francis named Cardinal Jose Advincula of Capiz to be the new archbishop of Manila. The March 25 announcement in Manila and at the Vatican filled the vacancy Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle left in February 2020, when he was called to the Vatican. The appointment puts Cardinal Advincula, a human rights advocate and promoter of strong families, in the same city as Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, who has urged security forces to “kill” and “finish off” armed communist rebels and “not think about human rights.” Archbishop Romulo Valles, president of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines, wished Cardinal Advincula “God’s abundant blessing in his new mission” and offered him “our continued prayers and support.” The new Manila archbishop, who was elevated to the College of Cardinals in November, will turn 69 March 30. Ucanews.com reported that the cardinal has said: “The Church cannot simply ignore human rights, because there is a moral dimension to them. The right to life, for example, is consistent with the Church’s teaching that there is dignity in the human person.” Before the November consistory, he told Vatican News, “Poverty is one of the reasons why we have social problems” and that he saw education as “the way to develop the people so that they can earn more in order to live a more decent life.” Cardinal Tagle currently serves as head of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples..
