The Joy of Evangelization CFC LEADERS from the International, Philippine and Metro Manila Missions gathered at the Landbank Plaza in Manila, Philippines for a two-day convention to talk about CFC in the light of new evangelization. The 2nd CFC Global Leaders Empowerment Convention (GLEC), with the theme “The Joy of Evangelization” encourages the CFC leadership to ‘go into the deep’ and ‘mend their nets’ as far as evangelization is concerned.
The event formally opened with the celebration of the Holy Mass by Bishop Jesse Mercado of the Diocese of ParaÑaque. In his homily, he spoke on the significance of the Feast of the Lord’s Baptism. “The Baptism of the Lord is another epiphany, manifestation. It is the beginning of the Lord’s public ministry. Through his baptism, Jesus aligns Himself with us (sinners) even if He himself is sinless in order to say that God is with us.” International delegates and participants gather for the 2nd GLEC
