ORDAINED TO SERVE, BLESSED TO PERSEVERE

July 11, 2026 — The Recollect Augustinian Youth–Recoletos Formation Center (RAY–RFC) Local Council joyfully joined the Province of St. Ezekiel Moreno in celebrating the Golden Presbyteral Ordination Anniversary of Rev. Fr. Lauro Larlar, OAR and Rev. Fr. Federico Gregorio, OAR.

The celebration began with a solemn Eucharistic Celebration at Our Lady of Consolation Parish, where thanksgiving was offered to God for five decades of faithful priestly ministry. It was followed by a fellowship lunch at Bulwagang Recoletos, bringing together the Augustinian Recollect family in a spirit of gratitude and communion.

Present at this memorable occasion were the OAR Priests and Religious, Seminarians, family members and friends of the jubilarians, as well as the different councils of SARF, RAY, and FORSOAR, all united in honoring two shepherds whose lives continue to inspire generations through their unwavering commitment to God and His people.

As we celebrate this remarkable milestone, we thank the Lord for the gift of your vocation and your countless years of dedicated service. May He continue to bless you with good health, abundant grace, and renewed strength as you faithfully carry out His mission.

Congratulations, Rev. Fr. Lauro Larlar, OAR, and Rev. Fr. Federico Gregorio, OAR!
