MC Sister nagpadayag ug pasalamat

Ang mga madre ug mga lay workers sa Missionaries of Charity mitambong sa nobena isip pagpangandam sa kanonisasyon ni Mother Teresa nga gisugdan niadtong Agosto 26 sa San Antonio de Padua Parish, Agdao.

Matag adlaw, ang mga birtud ni Mother Teresa ang ginahisgutan sama sa iyang pagkamalipayon as pagsilbi sa mga kabus. Kini ginahatag sa mga lay worker pinasikad sa ilang kasinatian. Tumong niini mao ang paghatag ug inspirasyon sa katawhan sa pag alagad sa uban.

Human sa nobena ang Santos nga Misa nagdalit ug pagkaon sa kalag alang sa tanan. Human sa 9 ka adlaw, gideklara siyang santa niadtong Setyembre 4 sa Vatican. Ang Thanksgiving Ceremony dinhi sa Davao gipahigayon sa San Pedro Cathedral niadtong Setyembre 6 sa buntag.

Third, to the late Archbishop Antonio Mabutas who invited the Sisters to work in Davao for the poorest of the poor; Archbishop Emeritus Fernando Capalla for the help, guidance, and inspiration; and Archbishop Romulo Valles for presiding the Thanksgiving Mass and most especially for helping the Missionaries of Charity in their material and spiritual needs; Msgr.
