On this Feast of the Holy Archangels, Cebu Archbishop-Designate Alberto “Abet” S. Uy presides over the Holy Mass with the Spiritual and Pastoral Formation Year (SPFY) community, members of his household and guests at the Archbishop’s Residence Compound in D. Jakosalem St., Cebu City.
In his homily, the good Archbishop-designate encouraged the faithful to learn from the example of the Archangels, who come down from Heaven to journey with the living and return to be with God in endless praise.
“Dasig ko ninyong tanan, anhi nato kat-onon ang nindut nga pagtulun-an gikan sa mga anghel diha sa ilang pagsaka [ug] kanaog. Nindot kon uban sa Ginoo, kita mosaka, monaog,” he said.
He reminded them not only to focus on earthly concerns but also to spend time with the Lord, drawing strength from Him for their mission and their journey back to Him.
“Ayaw lang pud pagpabilin sa ubos, mosaka pud ta sama sa mga anghel. Kinahanglan ta mag-ampo, makig-uban sa Ginoo, mamalandong. Inig human manaog napud ta aron mangangalad, manerbisyo,” he exhorted.
