MANDALUYONG:
16
March 2013 --
In a show of filial devotion, representatives from the various
segments
of the Educative-Pastoral Community of Don Bosco Mandaluyong
(students,
teachers, parents, alumni, lay mission partners and friends)
trooped to
the small chapel on March 15, 2013, at 10:30 am to attend the
Eucharistic celebration offered for the intentions of the new
Holy
Father, Pope Francis.
The simple but solemn celebration of the Mass was presided
over by the
school's Rector, Fr. Martin Macasaet, SDB. In his homily, Fr.
Marty
said that the election of Cardinal Bergoglio to the Papacy
shows indeed
that “God’s ways are beyond man’s ways… and God’s thoughts are
beyond
ours.” He encouraged everyone to persevere in praying for the
Pope,
especially after the initial uproar of jubilation has faded.
Finally he
reminded everyone about Don Bosco’s devotion to the Pope, that
is, to
the dignity bestowed by God to this holy office, and not to
any
specific personality.
Pope Francis, your children from Don Bosco Mandaluyong love
you dearly. VIVA IL PAPA!
