In response to the call of our bishops “to form or reactivate circles of discernment and use your freedom as God’s children to discern, participate, discuss, and debate,” the lay faithful are encouraged to actively participate in activities of this form. You are invited to Debate on Federal Philippines, on 9th March, 2018, to be held at the Ateneo Professional Schools Auditorium, Rockwell Center, Makati City.
In the Lay Leaders’ Caucus of Sangguniang Laiko ng Pilipinas held on February 10, 2018, we were challenged to face our accountability for the erosion of human rights and weakening of our democratic institutions. Thus, this is the time for us to heed the call of our bishops at the end of their plenary assembly on January 29, 2018 to:
“Have an informed conscience and decide in the light of Gospel values. Do what is necessary. Persuade our legislators to do only what is genuinely for the good of all on this issue of Charter change.”
The event is open to the public but SEATS ARE LIMITED. To confirm your attendance, please contact Jayvy R. Gamboa, through email at jrgamboa@ateneo.edu or call at (02) 426-6001 loc. 4627.
