Everywhere: Safeguarding and Protection of Minors and Vulnerable Adults Seminar

The Archdiocese of Cebu, Philippines, conducted its second archdiocesan-wide seminar on the safeguarding and protection of minors and vulnerable adults on May 20, 2025. This full-day activity featured Rev. Fr. John Era, CM, as our speaker. The archdiocese divided the clergy into three groups, each assigned different dates: one in the central part of the archdiocese, another in the southern part, and a third in the northern part. Attendance was made mandatory for all clergy, both religious and diocesan, by the mandate of His Excellency Jose S. Palma, DD, the Archbishop of Cebu.

The Missionaries of the Sacred Heart in the Cebu and Camotes districts actively participated in the safeguarding seminar as part of our commitment and pledge to provide a safe environment for our young people and vulnerable adults.
