Pope to Filipino Bishops: Proclaim God's mercy
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis
has invited Filipino Bishops to find new ways to proclaim the “miracle” of
God’s mercy. He made the call in a letter to the Bishops who are currently
holding their Plenary Assembly in the city of Cebu, which is due to host the
51st International Eucharistic Congress.
The Pope said that the Church
needed to spread God’s “enduring love” for everyone.
By doing this, the Pope prayed
that this Jubilee Year of Mercy would truly be a time “to gaze even more
attentively on mercy so that we may become more effective sign of Father’s
action in our lives.”
The opening Mass of the
Assembly was celebrated on Friday 22 January at Cebu Metropolitan Cathedral. A
number of issues are on the agenda for the Bishops including May 9th General
Elections.
The plenary meeting runs
through to Sunday January 24th.
