Bishop Varquez with GKK Youth at eve of first BEC Sunday

Borongan Bishop Crispin Varquez engaged himself in a “heart to heart talk” with about a hundred young people at the Chaplaincy of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal in Sabang, Borongan on June 15, 2019, the eve of the first celebration of the BEC Sunday.  The bishop dialogued with them answering their queries about their life and role in the Church, among others.  Starting this year, BEC Sunday will be observed yearly during the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, as mandated by the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines.  In Sabang, the first BEC Sunday was celebrated with the leaders of all eleven GKK (Gudti-ay nga Kristohanon nga Katilingban) communities attending the Holy Mass and a gathering thereafter.   (Gio Costuna and Mariya Elena Bingco / ESTE News)
