More than just a national event, Pope Francis’ visit to the Philippines is a cause for celebration for the entire Church in Asia with bishops in the region flying in especially for the Holy Father’s Mass with the clergy and religious at the Manila Cathedral on Jan. 16, 2015.

Some have already confirmed,” said Pasig Bishop Mylo Hubert Vergara, head of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) Commission on Mass Media, in a media briefing earlier today at the General Headquarters of the Media Committee for the Pope’s Visit in Intramuros, Manila.
