BISHOP Broderick S. Pabillo will assume his post as Vicar Apostolic of Taytay next month.
In an advisory, the Manila Cathedral said the canonical possession and rite of installation for the former Manila auxiliary bishop is scheduled on August 19, 9 a.m. at the St. Joseph the Worker Cathedral in Taytay, Palawan.
It will be broadcast live on the Facebook page and YouTube channel of the Manila Cathedral as well as in TV Maria cable channels.
Manila Archbishop Jose F. Cardinal Advincula Jr. will serve as Pabillo’s installing prelate.
The date of installation is considered significant since it will coincide with the feast day of St. Ezequiel Moreno, the Augustinian Recollect missionary and saint who served in Palawan.
It will also be the 15th episcopal anniversary of Bishop Pabillo.
Pabillo earlier said he welcomes his new appointment since it will give him the opportunity to reach out to the marginalized living in isolated communities in Palawan.
