Glory to God in the highest for the gift of history.
Today, on the Eighth Sunday after Pentecost (19 July 2026), the faithful of the parish gathered for Part 1 of the IFI Brief History Orientation. More than learning about dates and events, the orientation invited everyone to rediscover the rich heritage of the Iglesia Filipina Independienteβits humble beginnings, the courageous journey of its forefathers, its unwavering stand for faith, justice, freedom, and nationalism, and the enduring mission that continues to shape the Church today.
As we reflect on our past, may we be inspired to live out our calling with renewed faith and commitment, recognizing that our history is not merely a story to remember but a legacy to uphold and continue for future generations.
We look forward to journeying together again next Sunday for Part 2 of this meaningful orientation. May our understanding of our Church's history deepen our love for God and strengthen our commitment to the mission of the Iglesia Filipina Independiente.
To God be all the glory!
