Kalibo Bishop: Renew faith in God

KALIBO, Aklan – Kalibo Bishop Jose Corazon Tala-oc urged the faithful to renew their faith in God in the celebration of the feast of Señor Sto. Niño de Kalibo.

Tala-oc encouraged parishioners and devotees to embark on a journey of renewing their faith and loving God.

“He is with us, even in our preparations for the 50th anniversary of the Diocese of Kalibo,” the bishop said in his “Pag-umpisa” homily on Jan. 12 at the St. John the Baptist Cathedral.

“We celebrate with joy, especially after Christmas celebrations, so Jesus is with us,” the bishop continued. “What brings us here is our faith. Ano ang pananampalataya? Ito ang pagiging sigurado sa mga bagay kahit hindi pa nakikita,

Tala-oc emphasized that faith is the assurance of the things hoped for and a conviction of those things not seen.

He also reminded parishioners to focus on spiritual rather than secular activities during the fiesta, which is celebrated from Jan. 3 to 21 this year./PN
