Google+ARCHBISHOP emeritus Ricardo Cardinal Vidal named San Pedro Calungsod Youth Center (SPCYC) as the new ‘tambayan’ of the Barkada ni Pedro.
The center, established by the Commission on Youth more than a year ago, was formerly called the Archdiocesan Youth Center.
In response to the spiritual needs of the Barkada ni Pedro, the Commission on Youth is initiating a weekly Eucharistic celebration centered in honor of San Pedro Calungsod called ‘Tambayan ni Pedro’ at the SPCYC on P. Burgos Street, Cebu City every Friday at 6 p.m.
It is called ‘Tambayan ni Pedro’ because San Pedro Calungsod’s favorite hangout was the Holy Mass since he was a Sacristan during his lifetime.
Moreover, the ‘Tambayan ni Pedro’ is an avenue where prayer-petitions posted in San Pedro Calungsod’s facebook fan page are offered.
The eight districts of the Archdiocese of Cebu are the weekly pilgrims, but everybody is welcome to join.
For details, call the San Pedro Calungsod Youth Center at 5205234.
