THE SVDs THIS YEAR OBSERVE THE 100 YEARS IN THE PHILIPPINE MISSION
The Divine Word Missionaries celebrates the Centennial Year of the arrival of the first SVD missionaries in the archipelago. The Divine Word College of Urdaneta rejoices over this jubilee year with the theme: “We Remember, We Celebrate, We Renew.” We invite everybody to join us in remembering the efforts, the sacrifices of our first missionaries who gave their lives for the sake of the Kingdom. We invite you to celebrate with us the blessings that we received through the SVD Philippine Mission as we vow together to renew the vision and mission that St. Arnold started. May the darkness of sin and the night of unbelief vanish before the light of the Word and the spirit of grace…and may the Heart of Jesus lives in the hearts of all. Amen!
In the Word,
