Iloilo church bells ring to mark 36th EDSA People Power anniversary
Churches in the Archdiocese of Jaro are encouraged to ring their bells on February 25 to commemorate the 36th anniversary of the Edsa People Power Revolution.
The simultaneous ringing of church bells is set for 9:25 p.m., marking the exact time the Marcos family and cronies left the country, ending two decades of dictatorship.
Archbishop Jose Romeo Lazo hopes this commemoration will reignite the spirit of the historic event, which he described as a testament to the nation's fight for truth, freedom, and democracy.
The Archdiocese of Jaro oversees 92 parishes, with most under diocesan clergy and a few under religious priests.
Governor Arthur Defensor Jr. of Iloilo has also signed an executive order detailing provincial commemoration activities, following a directive from the Department of the Interior and Local Government.
