Col significativo rito dell’imposizione delle Ceneri siamo entrati nel tempo di Quaresima, periodo di circa quaranta giorni che culmina nelle solenni celebrazioni pasquali, cuore di tutto l’anno liturgico e sintesi di tutti i misteri della salvezza.

Nata come periodo riservato ai catecumeni per disporsi a ricevere i sacramenti dell’iniziazione cristiana nella grande Veglia Pasquale, la Quaresima è un tempo particolarmente propizio per rinnovare i nostri impegni battesimali e ritrovare così slancio e fervore spirituali.

Have you ever wondered if the universe is expanding or it's the new discoveries due to advancement in science and technology? That which is being discovered today and being added to the list of the wonders of nature wasn't there before? The answer is that it has been. Take a look of a rare image of the universe. All the countless space bodies: the numerous planets, the stars, all those mateors and meteorites we learned in science. Think about the movement of those bodies around the sun assuming that the discovery of Galilée was right. It's obviously that some phenomena are hard to comprehend humanly speaking. Imagine yourselves being taken on a tour in the space by a rocket then at one point you're permitted to see the universe below and above you, not even to mention of what you see side by side.

A noteworthy and spiritually enlightening event was held at the San Pedro Cathedral in Davao City, Philippines, on January 18, 2025, at exactly 2:30 PM. The new members were installed into the Ministry of Acolyte, a position of great honor and duty within the Catholic Church, which was witnessed by the faithful. The installation was conferred by the Most Reverend George B. Rimando, D.D., the auxiliary bishop of Davao, whose presence gave the event a sense of respect and solemnity.

In a significant milestone for the Apostles of Jesus Crucified (AJC) community, Br. Rodelio I. Mapula, alongside 12 other seminarians of the Configuration Year 3 of the St. Francis Xavier Regional Major Seminary of Mindanao (ReMaSe), was recently installed to the ministry of acolyte. The installation ceremony, a profound moment in the life of every seminarian, marks a step toward deeper service within the Church and prepares the seminarians for their eventual ordination to the diaconate and priesthood. An essential first step in a candidate's path to full involvement in the liturgical and sacramental life of the Church is the Ministry of Acolyte.
