Today, we celebrate Mother's Day. We express our sincere love and gratitude to the wonderful mothers out there. To the mothers who stood up as our guide and courage, and to those that were behind every investiture of altar servers; a reason why we are in this ministry today.

We also honor our patron, Our Lady of Light, who continued to share her light with us in order for our paths to be clear, a way of getting closer to God.

Happy Mother's Day!

𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐄𝐆𝐎 𝐒𝐕𝐌:
A Primer on the Episcopal Coat of Arms of
His Excellency, Most Rev. Gerardo Fortich S**o Jr., D.D. | 8th Bishop of Tagbilaran

An episcopal coat of arms is an insignia coming from centuries of tradition called heraldry that depicts the identity of a bishop in his ministry to the Church. Through the symbols of the coat of arms of our new bishop, we are called to learn his inspirations in life and his calling to serve as a shepherd to his flock here in the Diocese of Tagbilaran.

The personal coat of arms of Bishop-elect S**o is found in the sinister (right of viewer) side while the coat of arms of the Diocese of Tagbilaran is found in the dexter (left of viewer) side of the emblem. Under the coat of arms is the Bishop’s motto, "𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐄𝐆𝐎 𝐒𝐕𝐌" or “Take courage, it is I” from Matthew 14:27, Jesus’ remarks to His disciples coming to the boat where they were on while walking on the waters of the Sea of Galilee.

Special thanks to Bro. Kendrick Ivan Panganiban of DOMVS AVREA Ecclesiastical Designs and Lay-Secretary of the ACSP - Association of Catholic Shrines and Pilgrimages of the Philippines for designing the Bishop’s episcopal coat of arms.
