The new archbishop of the Archdiocese of Cagayan de Oro in the southern Philippine region of Mindanao urged the faithful “to confront the unseen enemy” with “hope and care for one another.”

In his message during his installation on Aug. 28, Archbishop Jose Cabantan said his appointment during a health crisis “calls us to rise as one, to survive as one, to live in solidarity, to strengthen our communion with one another and with God above all.”
