CREATING NEW AVENUES WITH MUSIC

A classical guitar concert entitled "Creating New Avenues with Music”, featuring The Abelardo Guitar Quartet from the University of the Philippines, Diliman, Q.C., and guest performers from the Yamaha School of Music featuring Atty. Melissa Suarez and Group will be held on September 25 and 26 at the Redemptorist Church in Bajada at 7:00 pm and again on September 27 at Felis Resort Complex in Matina Aplaya at 7:00 in the evening.

This concert is a fund raising event for the projects of Msgr. Manny Cabajar,C.Ss.R,D.D.,Bishop of Pagadian. For the Bishop, realizing this project would mean having a new venue for promoting gospel friendship among people of goodwill, whether priests, religious and the laity. It would mean having a new space that is more adequate and more conducive to rest, relaxation and prayer not only for the faithful in the Diocese of Pagadian, particularly the priests and sisters who are assigned to far flung parishes and who would need some convenient space when they come to the city, but also for other guests and visitors travelling from distant places. Ours would be a new venue that we hope to be more conducive to spiritual and pastoral encounters of faith motivated persons.

Please, be counted among those who care and have decided to share some of their blessings from God. Know that this will go a long way in the promotion of gospel friendship especially among our clergy and the spirit of koinonia and solidarity among our people.

This concert is for the benefit of the formation center of the Diocese of Pagadian under the auspices of Bishop Cabajar who by the way also hails from Davao as a member of the Redemptorist community in Bajada.
