Today we commemorate the Anniversary of the Death of Fr. Gerardo Filippetto OFM, Founder of the Franciscan Apostolic Sisters (FAS). 🙏

"In 1953, Rev. Father Gerardo Z. Filippetto, OFM, a missionary in the Northeastern region of the Philippines was inspired by the Lord to found an Institute of women as auxiliary to his work of evangelization and preservation of the faith in a vast area deprived of priest. The members are to live the spirit of Saint Francis of Assisi and follow the examples of the Blessed Virgin Mary in her service to Jesus and the apostles. For this reason, it is right that the religious family be called the Franciscan Apostolic Sisters (FAS). It was founded in the spirit of the Third Order Regular of Saint Francis dedicated to a life of prayer, penance and apostolate. On December 8, 1964, Bishop Teodulfo Domingo, D.D. of the Diocese of Tuguegarao granted its diocesan approval. On May 18, 1996, Archbishop Diosdado A. Talamayan after having received a favorable consent and approval from the Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life, issued the Final Decree of its Canonical Er****on as a Religious Institute of Diocesan Right. On March 24, 2003, the Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life, after careful examination of this Constitutions and Statutes issued the corrections to be incorporated for this Institute to be presented to the Holy Father for its pontifical recognition granted on MAY 14, 2003." 😇
