Faith Amid Ruin: Philippine Church Rallies Nationwide Prayers After Devastating Mindanao Earthquake Faith Amid Ruin: Philippine Church Rallies Nationwide Prayers After Devastating Mindanao Earthquake The Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) has launched an urgent nationwide appeal for prayers and humanitarian aid following a destructive 7.8-magnitude earthquake that struck Sarangani province and surrounding regions in Mindanao. In a statement of solidarity, CBCP President Archbishop Gilbert A. Garcera expressed profound grief for the victims of the disaster, which has left dozens dead, over a thousand injured, and thousands more displaced. The Church has directed all dioceses and parishes to include special intentions during Masses and organize nationwide second collections to accelerate emergency operations through Caritas Philippines. This local call for spiritual strength and physical relief coincides with global support, including a message of solidarity from Pope Leo XIV, who offered prayers from the Vatican for the deceased and all those suffering from the #faith #amid #ruin #philippine #church
