Commitee formed for Pedro’s canonization

ANSWERING the missionary call to help disseminate and celebrate the canonization of the second Filipino saint, Beato Pedro Calungsod, the private sector came up with a special events committee.

The committee is composed of chairperson Marlinda “Mayen”Angbetic-Tan and vice chairperson Carmel de Pio-Salvador, Marissa Fernan as consultant and Gino Salvador and Robby Alugar as members.

The committee formulated a process where donors can contribute and help in the fund-raising effort for the canonization of Beato Pedro Calungsod. Donations of P25,000 or more are being solicited from kindhearted individuals.

Donors will receive a certificate of donation and a limited-edition commemorative piece designed by internationally acclaimed Cebuano Kenneth Cobonpue and have the chance to win two BMW cars (a 3 series and a 1 series) and a KIA Sorento. Only 1,200 certificates of donation will be issued.

Filipinos from all over the world are invited to check the website address specially set up for donations at www.pedrocalungsodlimited.com or call the Archdiocese of Cebu Secretariat at 5207625 for more information.
