MANILA, Philippines — More than 80 bishops will attend the declaration of the Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage in Antipolo as an international shrine tomorrow.
The Apostolic Nuncio, Archbishop Charles Brown, will preside over the eucharistic celebration.
The Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines said a procession of the image of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage would be held at 8 a.m. to be followed by a rite of coronation of the image at 9:30 a.m.
In June 2022, the Vatican announced the approval of the petition to elevate the cathedral into an international shrine, the first in Southeast Asia and 11th in the world.
The cathedral’s new status took effect on March 25, 2023, according to a Vatican decree.
