PHILIPPINES - Prayers are requested for the eternal repose of Ms. Cecilia Dalsen Valera, a native of the town of Pasil in Kalinga Province in the Philippines, who joined her Creator last December 2021. Her family was instrumental in the construction of a small chapel in the remote village of Magsilay in 1993. Mother Cecilia, as she is fondly called in the community, eventually took a more active role in maintaining the oratory and animating the faith life of the Catholics in the village.

Congratulations, Br. Miggy Crisostomo FSC, for having successfully completed the academic requirements for the degree of Graduate Certificate in ASEAN Studies from the University of the Philippines- Open University.
