Cagayan calamity: Message from the Superior of Philippine Q-Province

cagayan alluvioni

CONSOLIDATE HELP FOR THE CAGAYAN AND ILIGAN typhoon victims

I have noticed that many of us and of our community have tried to assist in their own way (big or small) the victims of the recent calamity in Cagayan city and Iligan city. Some of us have inspired so many people through our ministry of preaching to make their Christmas more authentic by extending help to the victims of the devastating flood. Some on the other hand wanted to help but unaware on how to concretize it.

As practiced in our PHILIPPINE Q-Province we solicit each community to share or help and we gather together amount every community would like to give and then send the said amount/s to the diocese/s where such calamity happened. Thus I appeal to everybody to share. Make a needed sacrifice or help even in the solicitation for this gesture. Then the amount saved and gathered will be sent to the Philippine Q-Province and we will give them directly to the responsible agency/ies of the dioceses of Cagayan and Iligan. 

Our little sharing if put together might be a great help for our brothers and sisters who are in grief this Christmas season.

Please let everybody disseminate this appeal. If you happen to read this inform immediately your superior/resposnsible so that immediate action be done....

Let's make our Christmas more meaningful with this concrete gesture.

FR. HERMAN ABCEDE, RCJ
Major Superior

Fr. Vincent Victor Escanilla Dumdum Ordination

Ordinazione P. Vincent Dumdum

 

On October 29, 2011, in the Parish Church of St. Francis Xavier Parish, Balamban, Cebu, Rev. Vincent Victor Escanilla Dumdum was ordained to the priesthood through the laying on of the hand of His Excellency Msgr. Julito Cortes, D.D., Auxillary bishop of the Archdiocese of Cebu. The celebration started at 10:00 in the morning in which several priests from the diocese and from the various Rogationist communities in the Philippines came to concelebrate and witness the said event. The big Church which was on the process of renovation was filled with people coming from the various parts of Cebu and the whole Philippines.  The ordination was so solemn and very touching knowing that the “ordinandus” is already an orphan since few years ago. At 3:00 O’clock in the afternoon the “First Mass” was held in the same Church which served as a thanksgiving offering of the newly ordained priest for the gift of priesthood and a gesture of gratitude for all those who supported him and accompanied him in the journey towards priesthood. Then a short but meaningful dinner program was offered to everybody which was prepared by the former high school classmates of Fr. Vincent. Congratulations to the newly ordained rogationist priest.
