Let us pray for all our Local Superiors and House/District Treasurers together with the members of their respective Local Councils who will be elected that they will exercise their responsibilities in the service of our Lord and of our Society, in particular of our Province.

May Sts. Arnold and Joseph accompany all of us in our missionary journey!

Sincerely yours in the Divine Word,

FR. EDUARDO R. ROCHA, SVD

St. Arnold Janssen Chapels of Olutanga Island

The SVD Olutanga Mission at the Diocese of Ipil (Zamboanga Sibugay) has grown significantly. From only 2 parishes back in 2005 when we accepted the mission from the Society of Jesus, our SVD missionaries are now scattered in 5 parishes, with 2 parishes being in the mainland Sibugay Province.

Interestingly, in one Parokya San Miguel in the town of Mabuhay, we have two chapels named after our founder, St. Arnold Janssen.

 Saint Arnold Janssen Chapel of Upper Catipan

Originally Sto. Niňo Chapel, it was changed in 2005 when the pioneer Divine Word Missionaries Fr. Joseph Audiencia, SVD and Fr. John Doa, SVD arrived in the parish. Situated along the highway, they are the only chapel with a big tarpaulin of the SVD founder at their chapel doorpost.

 Saint Arnold Janssen Chapel of Looc-Barlac

St. Arnold Janssen Chapel of Looc-Barlac is situated in a "critical area." Many times, our parishioners have to flee from their homes to avoid being sandwiched between the military and the "lawless elements." Interestingly, they still choose to go back to their chapel after the military operations. Literally, they live each day according to the grace and mercy of God. Tomorrow is uncertain, but their faith feeds them with hope that in the end, the good always triumphs against evil.
