Solemnity of Mary, Mother of Orphans
September 27, 2026
With grateful hearts, we celebrated the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of Orphans through the Holy Eucharist, presided over by the Most Rev. Jose R. Rojas, D.D., Bishop of Libmanan, with the theme: “With Mary, Walking the Path of Freedom: Inspired by St. Jerome Emiliani.”
Bishop Jose emphasized the importance of "presence" and "accompaniment," especially in journeying with children and young people. His message reminded us that being there for them, listening to them, and walking with them with care and understanding are essential in helping them grow and discover the path God has prepared for them.
It was a blessed celebration made more joyful by the presence of our friends from the local community, parish groups from Calagbangan, Villazar, and Alanao, and visitors from Libmanan and Naga.
We offered our Mass intentions for everyone who joined us, those who sent their prayer intentions, our friends and benefactors, all those who helped make this celebration possible, and all those whom we promised to remember in prayer.
"Mary, Mother of Orphans, Principal Patroness of our Order, pray for us and for all the orphans of the world. Lead us always to Jesus, protect our children and young people, and guide the Southeast Asia Province in fidelity to the mission entrusted to us by Christ."
Happy Solemnity of Mary, Mother of Orphans!
