Santuario de San Antonio Parish stages this year's Francisfest featuring Byeong In Park and Rachelle Gerodias

09/21/2020 06:10:43 PM


October has been a special month for the Franciscan Order in the metro as the annual festival in honor of St. Francis of Asisi has been taking place during the month annually.

This 2020, though, Francisfest will be holding an 8-day online concert entitled “Build My Church on a Song” featuring two world-class Asian opera singers in Rachelle Gerodias, the country's premier soprano, and her husband, Byeong In Park, South Korea’s well-renowned baritone. This event will also feature a special message of hope from Jose Mari Chan. 

Billed as “Build My Church On A Song,” the concert will premiere at the Facebook and YouTube pages of Santuario de San Antonio Parish on the Feast Day of St. Francis of Assisi, 4 October 2020( Sunday) 8:00 pm and will run until 11 October 2020 (Sunday) 11:00 pm. The event title was made in lieu of the theme “Come Build My Church” as St. Francis heeded the call of the Lord to build His Church, we too can respond to this call by reaching out to various communities. 

As a gift to commemorate the 500 years of Christianity in the Philippines this coming 2021, the major beneficiary will be St. Clare of Assisi Parish in Dagat-Dagatan, Malabon. 

40,000 families in Navotas and Malabon are in desperate need of a church where they can congregate for Masses, prayers, formation, counseling, and community building. Construction will begin in 2021. 

Together, let us join hands as a community to come build His Church by supporting the construction of this Parish. 

Proceeds of this event will likewise support the various SSAP Parish Outreach Programs, carried out by our Social Services and Development Ministries: Hospital (Philippine General Hospital and Rizal Medical Center), Restorative Justice (Makati City Jail and Taguig City Jail), Scholarship, Livelihood, Eco-Justice, Relief and Rehabilitation, and Pastoral Care for Franciscan Vocations.
