51st Eucharistic Congress talks and press conference can be access through the pages  I jhave mentioned in my blog frjessie.blogspot.com   page  51st Eucharistic Congress 2016 Livestream . However these links corresponds to a very long videos that have been transfired during the whole day. On the other hand, CBCP make it available and divided it according to talks and events. It is available on CBCP Online Radio.  

After this morning, I stumble upon on one of the section in one of the newspaper broadsheet entitled Padre Damaso and the Friars: Myth Versus Reality.Written by Pio Andrade. This is a good information and should open up more information on the good contributions of the friars that shaped the country during the  Spanish Colonization. I am not saying that there is no Padre Damaso. What I am saying is that not all are.The said section can be accessed through this site . Please allow me to repost it here: ‘Padre Damaso’ and the friars: Myth versus reality If the Augustinians, Franciscans, Dominicans and Recollects were mostly evil like Damaso, how was Spain able to hold PH for 350 years with a ridiculously low occupying army? EXACTLY a year ago when Pope Francis visited the Philippines, Carlos Celdran, who claims to be a culture and history guide for tourists and heritage buffs, made a public appeal for the Pope to intervene in his civil case for “offending reli...

My previous post speaks of the site of the livestream of the event of the Eucharistic Congress to be held here in Cebu. I have given you the link so that you can watch it in your browser but to make it available in every smart phone, I decided to make an application of it in android gadgets. I do not have an apple computer to make it to apple store. I hope that the CBCP or Catholic Bishop Conference of the Philippines and the Diocese of Cebu will allow this even I do not have a Written permission from them. Since the link is already available to the public, I am just making it available to all android users so that they can watch it through their cell phones and tablet. The Link they have provided is only for those who can access the web through their desktops, You can download it through any of these manners: 1.    http://app.appsgeyser.com/51st%20IEC   2.  http://www.appsgeyser.com/2523220 3.

Last Monday, Jan 18, 2016, I have noticed that the website of the Diocese is now online again. It was poster here also when it was down before sometime last year. As we celebrate the Year of Mercy, the Year of Family and Eucharist and the Golden Jubilee of the Diocese of San Pablo it is but fitting to use the present technology to the building of the Kingdom of God. To inform necessary plan of action and the activities that has been part of the graces that God continually showers us with.  To warn of the pitfalls that the faithful may encounter as we travel toward to the new promised Land. This is also to strengthen each and everyone to carry the cross how heavy it may be as Our Lord Jesus Christ did. May information concerning our faith activities and programs help us to a deeper relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ who have bother to let himself be known by becoming one of us and to penetrate our very being to be united with Him.

As the Celebration of the long awaited International Eucharistic Congress to be held here in Cebu, Philippines is near, the convenors have decided to have it open on live streaming so that it could make it available to the most faithful even for those who could not attain there physically for various reason. Personally, I would like to attain but it is 8 day event that will cover two Sundays. I could not find priest to substitute me if I will go. Some people suggested that anybody could just spent three days for the event. It will be an opportunity lost also and a divided attention if you will not be present for the whole event. it will also be a half baked bread. So it is of great news that the event though we might not really know which event or events will be aired is indeed a blessing.  I will put it also to the sidebars of this blog, and if possible make an application for this sole purpose will also be an added great endeavor.

Fr. Ben Beltran, SVD, through his post has taken my attention on the issue of the groundbreaking statement on Christianity by a group of Orthodox Rabbis. The statement acknowledges the positive theological status of Christianity. A call for fraternal partnership of Jewish and Christian leaders.  Here is the full text of the said statement. December 3, 2015 To Do the Will of Our Father in Heaven: Toward a Partnership between Jews and Christians After nearly two millennia of mutual hostility and alienation, we Orthodox Rabbis who lead communities, institutions and seminaries in Israel, the United States and Europe recognize the historic opportunity now before us. We seek to do the will of our Father in Heaven by accepting the hand offered to us by our Christian brothers and sisters. Jews and Christians must work together as partners to address the moral challenges of our era. 1. The Shoah ended 70 years ago. It was the warped climax to centuries of...
