Dear Networks of the Clergy Discernment Group,
Greetings from Religious Discernment Group.
The Season of Advent will soon be in our midst. This year’s celebration of the seasons of Advent and Christmas is well within the context of the Filipino people’s preparation for the May 9, 2022 elections. elections. When “the Word became flesh and pitched his tent among us” (John 1:14) humanity found hope in him. Our nation longs to see hope for our country in the coming 2022 elections.
The RDG has planned a series of online discussions on politics in the country and elections in 2022. The first conference was held last October 16 with the theme, “Philippine Politics in Context”. It proved to be a fruitful discussion and sharing.
The RDG is planning for its second conference on 04 December 2021, Saturday at 9:00-11:30 AM. The theme is “Christian Engagement in Politics Today”. The objective of this second conference is to present and clarify the participation of Christians in politics: why we must participate and engage in politics and how we can work for a “better kind of politics” (Fratelli Tutti, 154).
In this regard, may we invite you to attend the second webinar?
The speakers who confirmed their participation are Most Reverend Broderick Pabillo, D.D. of Apostolic Vicariate of Taytay, Palawan and Rev. Fr. Dionito Cabillas of Iglesia Filipina Independiente (IFI).
