Dipolog Cathedral

Dipolog Cathedral This is the official page of the Dipolog Cathedral. Dipolog Cathedral is dedicated to Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary.
(5)

Located along Padre Ramon Street, it was built by the Spanish friars in 1894. The current church is a mix of both modern and old. Since its establishment, the Holy Rosary Cathedral of Dipolog has undergone various renovations; however, remnants of the original design are still evident. The narra ceiling, for example, is an authentic part of the original church. The facade is dominated by a huge a

rch leading to the churchโ€™s main door and a central belfry above the massive structure, covered by yellowish cream brick stones added in recent decades. Dipolog Cathedral holds a special place in the hearts of Filipinos not only for its spiritual significance but also for its historical importance as the original altar was designed by no less than our national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal, during his exile in Dapitan. The Cathedral of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary celebrates her feast day on October 7 of every year.

Comparison is a thief of joy. And even worse, comparison is an enemy of discipleship. Kay ang pagkatinun-an, dili man kompetisyon, apan kooperasyon. Si San Vicente Ferrer wala nagkinabuhi aron makig-kompetensya sa uban.

We honor St. Vincent Ferrer, the second patron saint of the Dipolog Cathedralโ€”a man remembered for his humility, wisdom, obedience, zeal in preaching, and deep love for God and His people.

May his life inspire us to live with compassion, speak with truth, serve with humility, and remain faithful even in difficult times. In a world that often seeks recognition, St. Vincent Ferrer reminds us to seek only the glory of God.

San Vicente Ferrer, pray for us and guide us to become faithful witnesses of Christ.

Neither the pouring rain nor the gloomy skies stopped the faithful from coming together in celebration and prayer during the Pontifical Mass for the 123rd Fiesta of St. Vincent Ferrer, secondary patron saint of Dipolog City, at 10:00 AM yesterday.

With Most Rev. Severo C. Caermare, D.D. as presider, the Eucharistic Celebration became a powerful witness of enduring faith, devotion, and unity among the people of Dipolog.

May St. Vincent Ferrer's example continue to inspire the people of Dipolog to remain firm in faith through every season of life.

Viva Seรฑor San Vicente Ferrer!

Pentecost has its roots in the Feast of Weeks celebrated by the Jewish people. This was an annual agricultural festival surrounding the first fruits of the spring harvest and celebrated the yearโ€™s harvest. Later, it was connected with the revelation of God to Moses, the Ten Commandments.

Then, for Christians, it would become the moment in which Christ, having returned to the glory of the Father, would make himself present in the hearts of men and women through His Spirit, the law given by God written in their hearts: โ€œ๐™๐™๐™š ๐™ฃ๐™š๐™ฌ ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™ ๐™™๐™š๐™›๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ซ๐™š ๐˜พ๐™ค๐™ซ๐™š๐™ฃ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™ฉ ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ฃ๐™ค ๐™ก๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™œ๐™š๐™ง ๐™›๐™ค๐™ช๐™ฃ๐™™๐™š๐™™ ๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™– ๐™ก๐™–๐™ฌ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™–๐™ฉ ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™ฌ๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ฉ๐™š๐™ฃ ๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™ฉ๐™ฌ๐™ค ๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™š ๐™ฉ๐™–๐™—๐™ก๐™š๐™ฉ๐™จ, ๐™—๐™ช๐™ฉ ๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐™–๐™˜๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™ค๐™› ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐™Ž๐™ฅ๐™ž๐™ง๐™ž๐™ฉ ๐™ค๐™› ๐™‚๐™ค๐™™ ๐™ฌ๐™๐™ž๐™˜๐™ ๐™ข๐™–๐™ ๐™š๐™จ ๐™–๐™ก๐™ก ๐™ฉ๐™๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ๐™จ ๐™ฃ๐™š๐™ฌ ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™ ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™š๐™ฉ๐™˜๐™๐™š๐™™ ๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™๐™š๐™–๐™ง๐™ฉ๐™จ ๐™ค๐™› ๐™›๐™ก๐™š๐™จ๐™โ€ (Pope Francis, General Audience, 19 June 2019).
