The giving of symbolic gifts also added value to how thoughtfulness are expressed towards the new Bp.

Touching testimonials were shared by family members, relatives, friends, high school batchmates, representatives of the local government unit, and key leaders of the IFI community from the parish to the diocesan level. Each message reflected not only admiration for Bishop Joyohoy’s achievements, but also deep appreciation for his unwavering commitment to faith and service.

With warm wishes and prayers, the celebration honored the inspiring journey of the first son of Alcantara to become a bishop - a moment of pride not only for his family, but for the entire community whose solidarity and faith continue to uplift and inspire generations.

In celebration of the Feast of Pentecost Sunday, the congregation of the IFI Parish of Alcantara, Cebu held a solemn Misa Cantada in the morning, with the Rt. Rev. Jonash Arazo Joyohoy as the main celebrant and Rev. Fr. Ariel Pacinio as the co-celebrant.

The gathering became a meaningful testament to the fruitful mission reflected in the life and ministry of our beloved Bishop Jonash Joyohoy, who joyfully returned to his hometown to celebrate the Holy Eucharist with his family, relatives, friends, and fellow Alcantarahanons.

The warm and heartfelt reception from the faithful truly manifested the spirit of Christian unity and love. In his inspiring homily, Bishop Joyohoy reminded the congregation that participation in the ministry of the Church is a calling shared by all the baptized. Just as the disciples were commissioned through the power of the Holy Spirit, so too are we called to continue Christ’s mission in our communities through faith, service, and compassion.

Indeed, the celebration was not only a homecoming for a son of Alcantara, but also a renewal of faith and commitment among the faithful of IFI Alcantara during this blessed season of Pentecost.
