21st Feast Day in honor of St. Bernadette Soubirous
April 27, 2026 – Phase 2B, V&G, Our Lady of Lourdes Parish, Tacloban City
The Ecclesial Community celebrated the 21st Feast Day in honor of St. Bernadette Soubirous with the Holy Eucharist presided by our dear Parish Priest, Rev. Fr. Loreto Amante, together with Rev. Fr. Joemar Martos, our new Parochial Vicar.
Joining us were seminarians from the St. John the Evangelist School of Theology (SJEST) and the Sacred Heart Seminary—two seminarians from V&G Subdivision and one from Abuyog—who served with devotion and joy.
The sponsors of this year’s feast were the Family Groups in Phase 2B, V&G Subdivision, Tacloban City, who offered their prayers and presence in thanksgiving.
Though the celebration was simple due to the present crisis situation, the community gathered as One Church through the BEC–Family Groups and Block Rosary Units, showing that faith and unity remain strong even in challenging times.
Reflection:
The presence of seminarians alongside our priests was a beautiful reminder of the continuity of faith and vocation in the Church. Their service at the altar reflects the hope of future shepherds who will continue to guide God’s people.
St. Bernadette’s humility and perseverance inspire us to embrace simplicity, especially in times of trial. This year’s feast, though modest, was rich in meaning: it showed that true celebration is not measured by grandeur but by the depth of faith and the unity of hearts.
As one community, we continue to walk together, strengthened by the witness of St. Bernadette, who teaches us that holiness is found in trust, prayer, and fidelity to God’s call.
St. Bernadette Soubirous, Pray for us🙏🙏🙏
