Congratulations to Deacon Honorio “Ron” Valdeavilla Pangan Jr.

Deacon Honorio "Ron" Valdeavilla Panan Jr. will be ordained into the priesthood today at 2:00 p.m. at the Dulce Nombre de Maria Cathedral-Basilica in Hagatna.  He will be ordained by Archbishop Michael Byrnes.  Altougth he is not an RMS priest, he was one of the four seminarians who were at the former St. John Paul II Seminary under Archbishop Anthony.  He will be serving as Guam's priest. Of course, this is not the first time, I have recognized Deacon Ron.  I recognized him when he and Junee Valencia were ordained a deacon (See my post here).  It is important that all the priests in the Catholic Church be in union with their Archbishop otherwise we would end up repeating history.  Congratulations to Deacon Ron.

    What does that mean? What history does that mean?

    1. Dear Anonymous at 8:57 am,

      Under Archbishop Anthony Apuron, there were a few clergy who took away his due process by working to get rid of him without a trial. That should never have happened. It is also unchristian for a clergy member to take away the due process of any person.

    2. Yep, especially the due process of the Bishop whom they vowed their obedience to.
