Message from the Archbishop of Davao Most Rev. Fernando R. Capalla, DD
Greetings of Peace in the Lord! With a shepherd's joy, I greet and commend all of you as you hold the 9th Triennial Convention of the National Federation of Religious Brothers in the Philippines at Mergrande Ocean Resort and Convention Center, Bago-Aplaya, Davao City on 2426 October 2008 with the theme "One Heart, One Nation, One Mission." As you reflect and discuss together important and urgent matters concerning the mission of the religious brothers in the context of the evangelization works of the Philippine Church and renew your commitment to the same, allow me to suggest that in everything we do, let us always allow the love of Christ to guide us. As our Good Shepherd, His Spirit will help us in making right decisions for the benefit of all. As you hold on together in hope and love and, as disciples of Jesus, continue your journey of faith into the Third Millennium, I pray that the Good Lord continue to bless you with every good and perfect gift, and grant success to your endeavors and plans.
Rev. Fernando R. Capalla, DD Archbishop of Davao
