SAINT JAMES AND THE PHILIPPINES
---
Today is the celebration of the Feast of St. James the Great within the celebration of the 500th Anniversary of the arrival of Christianity in the Philippines. The Holy Apostle has a connection with the evangelization of our country. Christianity was brought to our archipelago by Spain, and Spain, based on tradition, was evangelized by St. James. Hence, we can somehow trace our roots as Filipino Christians to St. James.
