Last August 22 (6pm) was the first mass celebrated by our newly ordained priest, Rev. Fr. Lucio Arellano, FMVD. This was held at the Verbum Dei Apostolate Center, Good Shepherd Road, Banawa Hills, Cebu City . This was exactly 7 days after his ordination last August 15 at the Maria Della Strada Parish, Diliman Quezon City. After the mass was a simple "salo-salo" (dinner) with everyone who attended. Then a short program was organized in the conference hall with some presentations from the members of the Verbum Dei family. Here are the videos of the homily and some important moments of the mass and the program afterwards. The Verbum Dei Missionary Fraternity welcomed two new members of the office of the priesthood when Rev Iwao Ikegami, FMVD and Rev Lucio Arellano, FMVD were ordained as priests on the Feast Day of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary last August 15, 2015 in Sta. Maria della Strada Parish in Manila, Philippines at 2:30 in the afternoon (+8:00 GMT). It was officiated by His Excellency most Rev Fr. Antonio Tobias, DD, Bishop of the Diocese of Novaliches.

We did our best to have it done at the venue but due to some technical difficulties (i.e. no internet connection at the venue), it wasn't possible. Fortunately we had to do plan B which is to record some of the important moments of the event. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience. See below for the link of the videos uploaded to Youtube. Updates (Aug. 15, 2015) Here are the recorded videos of the special moments of the ordination. Last July 25 (Saturday) and July 26, 2015 (Sunday), the disciples had a theological formation on Patristics and Ecclesiology. It was held in the big conference room in the Verbum Dei Apostolate Center, Banawa, Cebu City. Two missionaries were the speakers for the two days namely Adriana Haro, FMVD and Fr. Gerson Ortiz, FMVD.
