The Most Rev. Roberto “Bobet” Mallari gratefully received an altar stone containing a relic of Saint Sebastian and Saint Bartholomew the Apostle from Bishop Emeritus Florentino Cinense, Tarlac’s Bishop Emeritus on Wednesday, August 12, 2026.

The document signed by Bishop Cinense formally certifies the altar stone which contains the said relics, consecrated during the Feast of the Transfiguration of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

The relics of two saints mirror the sacred connection of Tarlac and Magalang. Tarlac was once under the parochial administration of the Augustinian friars of Magalang, Pampanga. Magalang is placed under the patronage of Saint Bartholomew the Apostle, while Tarlac is placed under Saint Sebastian’s care.

Further, this is a testament to the brotherhood and continued support of the two bishops in the spirit of pastoral continuity and leadership.

Amang makapangyarihan, Itinataas namin sa lyo ang aming mga pusong nagpapasalamat sa kagandahan ng lyong nilikha kung saan kami ay bahagi sa pagkalinga Mong nagtataguyod sa aming mga pangangailangan at sa karunungan mong gumagabay sa takbo ng daigdig.

Kinikilala namin ang aming mga pagkakasala sa lyo at sa sangnilikha. Hindi kami naging mabuting katiwala ng kalikasan. Pinagkamali namin ang iyong utos na pangasiwaan ang daigdig. Ang kapaligiran ay nagdurusa sa aming kamalian at ngayon ay aming inaani ang aming pagmamalabis at kawalang pakialam. Ang "global warming" ay laganap na. Ang mga bagyo, pagbaha, pagputok ng bulkan, paglindol at iba pang kalamidad ay patuloy na tumitindi sa pananalanta. Lumalapit kami sa lyo, Mapagmahal na Ama at humihingi ng kapatawaran sa aming mga kasalanan.

Hinihiling namin na kami, kasama ng aming mga mahal sa buhay at pinagpagurang ari-arian at ipag-adya sa banta ng mga kalamidad, likas man o kagagawan ng tao. Iniluluhog namin gawin kaming mapanagutang katiwala ng lyong nilikha at maging bukas-palad na kapwa sa mga nangangailangan. Dalangin namin ito Sa Pangalan ni Hesus. Amen.

Kristo, Maawa Ka sa amin.
San Antonino ng Florencia, Ipanalangin mo kami.

Ad Altare Dei! ⚖

With hearts full of gratitude and joy, we warmly welcome the return of the revered original image of Saint Antoninus of Florence after a month of careful restoration. The image is now beautifully vested in its new "Pambahay" regalia, a fitting expression of our love and devotion to our beloved patron.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Madam Ceferina Capinpin Saludez for generously offering the new Pambahay vestment, and to our benefactor whose generosity made the restoration of the sacred image possible. Your kindness and devotion will continue to inspire our parish community.

Our sincere appreciation also goes to Mr. Christoffer Asanion, the official Camarero of Saint Antoninus of Florence, for his dedicated care, unwavering commitment, and loving service to our beloved patron.

May Saint Antoninus of Florence continue to intercede for all our benefactors and faithful devotees, blessing them with abundant graces, good health, and steadfast faith.

Happy Priests' Day!

Today, we give thanks to God for the gift of the ministerial priesthood and for the faithful service of our priests who have dedicated their lives to the proclamation of the Gospel, the celebration of the Sacred Mysteries, and the pastoral care of God's people.

Through their ministry, Christ continues to sanctify, teach, and shepherd His Church.
Let us keep our priests in our prayers, that they may remain faithful, holy, and joyful servants of the Lord, strengthened by the grace of the Holy Spirit in their sacred vocation.

"You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek." (Psalm 110:4)

May the Lord continue to bless, sustain, and strengthen them in their ministry for the glory of God and the salvation of souls.

Homily Highlights | 18th Sunday in Ordinary Time
August 02, 2026

Ang ibig sabihin ng awa ay “mula sa puso, naramdaman ng Panginoon and ating pag hihirap. Kaya sa tuwing tayo ay naawa ay nararamdaman din natin ang pag hihirap ng ating kapwa.

Ngunit ang Panginoon, hindi niya lang isinapuso, hindi niya lang naramdaman ang paghihirap ng tao. Kundi naranasan niya mismo ang ating paghihirap. Sa kanyang pagkakatawang tao, pagiging alipin, at pagkamatay sa krus, tayo ay kanyang niligtas. Tayo ay tinanggal niya sa ating “miserya”. Ganyan ipinakita ng Panginoon ang kanyang “Awa” para satin.
