We look forward with gratitude and joy to March 16, 2021, the fifth centenary of the coming of Christianity to our beloved land. We remember with thanksgiving the first Mass celebrated on Limasawa Island on Easter Sunday March 31 that same blessed year. We remember the baptism of Rajah Humabon who was given his Christian name Carlos and his wife Harah Amihan who was baptized Juana in 1521. Our eyes gaze on the Santo Niño de Cebu, the oldest religious icon in the Philippines, gift of Ferdinand Magellan to the first Filipino Catholics that same year. Indeed 2021 will be a year of great jubilee for the Church in the Philippines. We shall, therefore, embark on a nine-year spiritual journey that will culminate with the great jubilee of 2021. It is a grace-filled event of blessings for the Church starting October 21, 2012 until March 16, 2021. All the succeeding events are bound together by the themes of “faith” and “evangelization”. Evangelization is the proclamation, witness and transmission of the Gospel given to humanity by our Lord Jesus Christ. It is the opening up of people’s lives, society, culture and history to the Person of Jesus Christ and to His living community, the Church.

  • Catechetica Fondamentale a Research on the Catechetical
    A Research on the Catechetical Institutions in the Philippines Fr. Edric Sanico Bedural Priest of the Archdiocese of Manila ABSTRACT From the Introduction of the Directory of the Catechetical Formation and Training institutions of the Philippines: “This Directory of the Catechetical Formation and Training institutions of the Philippines is the result of several surveys conducted by the Catechists’ Foundation of the Philippines since 1986. Because of constant changes in the existing institutions and the creation of new ones, a continuous revision of the data proved necessary. A major revision was made in April 1991 on the occasion of the Convention Catechists’ Formators held at the Communications Foundation for Asia in Manila. A summary of the data collected was in fact published in Docete Vol.14 no. 65 (April-June, 1991). These data were again counterchecked, corrected and expanded through correspondence with the concerned institutes.”1 The researcher here presents some of the useful data found in the Directory. Although, the researcher would only present an overview of the institutions because the Directory which, as seen above, is a result of survey work done way back in 1986 and was published more than two decades ago in 1992. From Rome, he has tried contacting the Catechists’ Foundation of the Philippines in their office in Manila for their updated materials but has received no replies as of the moment. Fortunately, an opportunity was given to the researcher to go back to the Philippines to be able, hopefully, to gather the data necessary for a future update. The researcher follows the major groupings of the catechetical institutions made in the Directory.

  • East Asian Mission Vicariate Took Place on December, 14-17, 2015 in New Manila
    EAST ASIAN MISSION EAMV NEWSLETTERS VICARIATE Vicariate Newsletter #9, February 2016 The period before and after Christmas found the members of the East Asian Vicariate very busy with projects, ministries, and holiday celebrations. As soon as Advent began, we sponsored the 8th annual Puso sa Puso Christmas party for nearly one thousand needy children in Manila. The next week we welcomed two members of the Generalate, Fr. Milton and Fr. Augustin who were joining us for our Vicariate Chapter. Delegates gathered in New Manila to discuss a wide variety of issues facing our growing vicariate. During the chapter Fr. Milton bestowed the minor orders of lector and acolyte upon several of our clerics. The holidays brought a welcome break from classes for our English students, philosophers, and theologians along with the five clerics involved in the newest program of formation, the regency year. This had them spending every week in our Puso sa Puso Education program in two poor areas in Manila. With the New Year the candidates in the English language program began in earnest the rehearsals for this year's play, "Pinocchio." We're working on how to make his nose grow when he tells a fib. The beginning of the "Year of Mercy" overlapped the closing of the year of the "Consecrated Life," both declared by Pope Francis. Our Loyola Heights students joined a special choir for the ceremonies at the Cubao Cathedral. And we are all ready for our Lenten observances with Ash Wednesday coming rather early this year. Fr. Gregory Coulthard, SDS. FAITH FESTIVAL 2016 One of the biggest projects of the Father Jordan Youth is the Faith Festival.
