Fr. Bong Tupino Celebrates 52nd Birthday with Parishioners
Parishioners and friends of Fr Bong from Christ the King and from his previous parishes joined Fr Bong as he celebrated his 52nd birthday last January 26, 2018, a Friday. His special day commenced with his thanksgiving Eucharistic Celebration at 7am, at the Divine Mercy Chapel. The day also happened to also be the Memorial of Saints Timothy and Titus, Bishops.
His brother-priests concelebrated the mass with Fr Bong. After the mass, everyone was invited to a delightful breakfast at the convent veranda.
It was a huge turnout, with several groups coming to celebrate with Fr. Bong, including former parishioners from Lady of Peace Parish in Paranaque, San Isidro Labrador Parish in Tandang Sora, Hearts of Jesus and Mary Parish in West Triangle, and our Lady of Pentecost Parish in Loyola Heights. Also gracing the occasion were former classmates from the San Jose Seminary in the Ateneo de Manila campus.
Near the end of the breakfast, Fr. Bong was asked to blow out the candle on his birthday cake.
