Hi, Being a Roman Catholic, I always welcome news like this. Strange but I learn of this new development on the process of Pedro here in mylot. Maybe I have not gone down to the local parish to check on the news, I have not been around for some time now, really, even on Sundays, our parish priest which happen to be a classmate in the Seminary has been wondering why. I just feel not up to it, what with the limited time on weekends when I could do house works and the like. Anyways, Pray for Us, Blessed Pedro Calungsod, nice achievements there.

Hi akatsukipein, I just saw the news earlier and I am very happy that finally the vatican had an scheduled for the canonization of Blessed Pedro Calunsod and even though that I do not know him but i believe that he already performs many miracles by healing the sick and dying people.
