PIME | Manila, Philippines—The Catholic bishops of the Philippines have issued an appeal to their fellow countrymen and women, urging them to remember, repent, and build a better future by fighting endemic evils like corruption. This comes as the country is set to mark the 40th anniversary of the 1986 People Power uprising or Rosary Revolution on 25 February, which ended the dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos Sr.

Commemorating 40 years since that event that marked the modern history of the nation, Church leaders now call for “three sacred duties: to remember, to repent, to respond – that we may welcome the spirit of that miracle and bring us to a better future.”
