The Feast of the Stigmatization of St. Francis last September 17 accompanied the celebration of Jubilarians’ Day 2014.
The Order of Friars Minor of the Franciscan province of San Pedro Bautista paid tribute to the friars who celebrated milestones in their lives. Rev. Fr. Lino Gregorio Redoblado, OFM or Fr. Greg as everyone in the parish fondly calls him presided over the celebration of the Holy Eucharist at Santuario de San Antonio church. Dinner was then served at the Convento garden.
