MANILA, Philippines--NBN?S inernationally acclaimed program, ?The Power to Unite with Elvira,? marks its second anniversary Saturday with a special episode at 8 p.m. The one-hour special coincides with the celebration of The Year for Priests and features guests like His Eminence Ricardo Cardinal Vidal, the Most Rev. Pablo Virgilio David and Most Rev. Reynaldo Evangelista.
Coinciding with the 150th death anniversary of St. Jean Marie Vianney, the patron of priests, Pope Benedict XVI has dedicated 2009 to honor God for the gift of vocation to the priesthood.
Guests share their thoughts on the richness, meaning and mystery of the vocation. Cardinal Vidal expresses his delight over the importance that the Church gives to the priesthood, especially because vocations have started showing signs of decline. For him, the priest is a living symbol of God?s presence in the world.
?Power to Unite? is hosted by Papal Pro Ecclesia awardee, Elvira Yap Go, and is seen Sundays at 6 p.m. on NBN.
