BALANGA City, Bataan – The bishop of the Diocese of Balanga on Friday issued a prayer to calm down Taal volcano and for the protection of those facing from imminent danger.
Here is the plea of the Most Reverend Ruperto C. Santos, bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Balanga:
“Almighty Father, You are the God of Water, earth and sky. By your great power and mighty strength, you created the universe. The earth is filled with your glory!
With humble hearts, we approach your throne. We ask that you restore the calmness of Taal volcano. We know nothing is impossible to you and you are always in control. May the coming lava subside and molten rocks cool down.
Instill your compassionate presence in us so we may calm our fears. You have always provided everything we need.
O Lord, continue to keep us all safe under your divine protection. In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.”
