We warmly welcomed Archbishop Socrates B. Villegas, D. D., Archbishop of Lingayen-Dagupan to DYCI for the ongoing commemoration of the 75th Founding Anniversary last September 11 through a Holy Mass which, the Liturgical Choir truly valued the chance to be part of. Through open forums with our beloved DYCIans, we witness the heart and wisdom of a father and a shepherd.
This same celebration also became a thanksgiving for the canonization of Saint Carlo Acutis 🌹✨, whose life reminds us that holiness is attainable in the simplicity of daily living, when lived with fides and caritas. Indeed, September 11 was a day of legacy 📜, guidance 🕊️, and sanctity 🌟—a testimony that the mission of DYCI continues to be grounded in fides, caritas, and serviam to God.
As Saint Carlo once showed the world that even the youth can radiate holiness 👦🌟, so too are we called to embody faith and love in every action, no matter how ordinary. His devotion to the Eucharist and his life of simplicity remind us that true greatness is found not in worldly achievements, but in living each moment for God with joy and sincerity ✝️💖.
This day was also graced with an advance celebration of the birthday of Archbishop Socrates B. Villegas 🎂🎉, where the community expressed gratitude for his life of service and pastoral leadership. May God continue to bless him with strength, wisdom, and joy as he guides the faithful! with fides and caritas. 🙏💙
Truly, September 11 became not only a remembrance of history and sanctity, but also a living harmony of thanksgiving, renewal, and joy—ad majorem Dei gloriam 🌿✨.
