Pope Francis has expressed his \u201cprayerful solidarity\u201d with the Filipino bishops as they gather for their plenary assembly in Manila.<\/p>\n

Members of the Catholics Bishops\u2019 Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) started their meeting at the Pope Piux XII Center on Saturday to discuss various Church and social concerns.<\/p>\n

Among the agenda of the 3-day meeting include a discussion on the new priestly formation program and the challenges faced by the young people in preparation for next year\u2019s Synod of Bishops.<\/p>\n

The Pope said he is hoping that the meeting \u201cmay bear spiritual fruit and that you yourselves may grow in deeper faith, hope and charity\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn this way, together with your priests, you will encourage all young Filipinos to become \u2018joyful messengers of challenging proposals [and] guardians of the goodness and beauty which shine forth in a life of fidelity to the Gospel,\u2019\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The pontiff\u2019s message was relayed by Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican\u2019s Secretary of State, to CBCP President Archbishop Socrates Villegas.<\/p>\n

The cardinals and bishops at the assembly are also expected to tackle social issues, including the ongoing crisis in Marawi City.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
