Representatives, Not Substitutes: Homily for the Ordination to the Presbyterate of Revs Bulan, Cruz, and Santos (Jn 10:11–16)

Dom, Bien, and James, allow me to begin by making one thing very clear to you. From this day forward, you are being ordained not to become substitutes for Christ, but to become his representatives. Hindi kapalit kundi kinatawan. The distinction is important. A substitute is a replacement for someone who is absent. A representative…

  • Laudato Si’ and Integral Ecology 10 Years Later
    How did we spend the last 10 years of living Laudato Si’ and integral ecology? Were we trying to listen, trying to learn perhaps, but remaining indecisive for periods, with increased distraction, division, and denial? The main challenge is not a project design—or a technology—but good will in seeking collaboration across silos. Where have we come from? The encyclical Laudato…

"MAGIS taught me that the purpose of our lives is not to cling to what we prefer, but to discern what draws us closer to God and to one another. Whether in joy or struggle, certainty or doubt, abundance or lack, we are invited to choose what leads us toward deeper love. I return from this experience changed not because everything is now clear, but because my heart is more attentive. Faith is no longer something I set aside for later. It has become a compass, quietly guiding how I see the world, how I walk with others, and how I choose the path ahead, even if it hurts." - Eric Joseph C. Bernasor

🤝 FRIENDSHIPS THAT GO DEEPER. The best friendships are not just built on shared interests—they are formed through shared prayer, meaningful conversations, service, and a common desire to follow Christ. In the Ignatian tradition, we journey together, helping one another discover where God is at work in our lives. MAGIS Korea 2027 is an international Ignatian experience for young adults from around the world. Before World Youth Day, participants gather in small communities for prayer, cultural immersion, service, pilgrimages, and faith-sharing, creating lifelong friendships rooted in the spirituality of St. Ignatius. After MAGIS Korea, we continue the journey at World Youth Day 2027 in Seoul, the largest global gathering of Catholic young people with the Holy Father. Millions of pilgrims from every nation will come together to celebrate the faith, deepen their relationship with Christ, and witness the beauty of the universal Church. ✨ Meet new friends. 🙏 Grow in faith. 🌏 Journey with the global Church. 💙 Experience the MAGIS way of life. Join the MAGIS Movement! Like Magis Pilipinas or more updates—we'll be releasing the sign-up forms for MAGIS Korea 2027 and World Youth Day 2027 soon. Your pilgrimage begins here. 🇵🇭➡️🇰🇷
