My felicitous fiesta greetings to my fellow Catbaloganons and the family of Yulo Brothers, our hermanos mayores for this year's fiesta celebrations! A centennial anniversary deserves nothing less but jovial and festive celebration apt to the significance of this event.
The dawning of our profound religious devotion to our beloved patron said, Saint Bartholomew, the apostle, has guided our forefathers and the present generations to an unwavering fidelity to the blessings of God. Hundred years deserves to be remembered, tracing the footsteps in history and know the building blocks of our achievements and successes. And in return, our thanksgivings for all the graces we have received through
Hon. Manuel Van A. Torrevillas
the years, including the events that have taught us the importance of our continued trust to our patron saint.
It is thus fitting to call this fiesta celebration as pagduaw, "a homecoming and a revisit. . ." and for us Catbaloganons, we revisit and see the imprints and wonders of our Divine Providence that touched our lives. Furthermore, this serves as living testimony of our desire to give justice to our devotion to our beloved intercessor, Saint Bartholomew.
More power to all. Maupay nga patron ha iyo ngatanan! I remain
