by Fr. Roy Cimagala - July 24, 2024 - 12:00am

by Fr. Roy Cimagala - July 17, 2024 - 12:00am

The temporal aspect of the Church’s mission
by Fr. Roy Cimagala - July 12, 2024 - 12:00am
GIVEN the obvious fact that the Church has to carry out its spiritual and supernatural mission in an earthly and temporal setting, it behooves everyone of us in the Church, both clerics and lay who should work in...

Everything starts with God’s love
by Fr. Roy Cimagala - July 8, 2024 - 12:00am

by Fr. Roy Cimagala - July 3, 2024 - 12:00am
We need to be clear about this. Our Christian faith is not optional in our life.

Transcending our earthly and temporal life
by Fr. Roy Cimagala - June 21, 2024 - 12:00am

The divine wisdom behind the Beatitudes
by Fr. Roy Cimagala - June 10, 2024 - 12:00am

Guarding against infidelity
by Fr. Roy Cimagala - June 3, 2024 - 12:00am
