The Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost) has launched a commemorative postage stamp to honor Pope Francis, celebrating his legacy of faith, compassion, and service to humanity.
The stamp is designed in a se-tenant format, featuring two connected stamps with unique visuals, symbolizing the dual aspects of his mission in both religious and global humanitarian efforts.
One stamp depicts Pope Francis' spiritual humility, while the other emphasizes his advocacy for peace, social justice, and environmental stewardship.
A total of 20,000 printed copies of the stamp are available, along with 1,000 Official First Day Covers.
These limited-edition items can be purchased at the Manila Central Post Office.
Postmaster General and CEO Luis Carlos stated that the stamp conveys a message of unity, love, and faith across borders, honoring a global religious figure who has impacted many Filipinos.
PHLPost previously issued commemorative stamps in honor of Pope Francis, including one during his visit to the Philippines in 2015.
