    As PCP II proudly declares:

    “For us Filipinos, the first


    century of the coming
    millennium will mark the
    500th year since we as a
    people accepted the Faith”
    (PCP II 3)
    It makes us the only Christian nation
    among our Asian brethren. There
    are deep affinities between Christ’s
    message and the Filipino’s in most
    ways of thinking and acting. “Much
    of the Gospel has become part of
    us compassion, forgiveness, caring,
    piety and makes of us a basically
    decent people (PCP II 15).
    Through the past centuries,
    right up to our present
    critical times, growing more
    mature in the following of
    Christ has meant becoming
    more truly and authentically
    Filipino
    PCP II insisted on the mutual interaction
    between Christian Faith and Filipino culture.
    “Hence we must take a closer look at how
    the values that we have from our Christian
    Faith can strengthen the good in our cultural
    values and correct what is excessive in them
    and supply for their deficiencies” (PCP II 22).
    EXPOSITION
    The Church in the Philippines is unique
    because of the rich popular religious piety &
    images that show the authentic culture &
    characteristics of the Filipino.
    In the light of PCP II analysis of our journey as
    a community from the time we received the
    faith, it requires even more the role of the
    Church in the Philippines & its major pastoral
    priorities.
    promulgated on January 20- February 17, 1991
    at the Holy Apostles Seminary.
    In Article Seven, it said that the Council was
    convoked “to take stock of where we are; to
    look where we are going; to re-animate our
    life in Jesus Christ; to unite all things in
    Him.” These are four important features of
    PCP II.
    We can say that PCP II is a council of renewal.
    It’s a council of renewal – renewing the
    Church’s self-understanding, renewing the
    Church’s understanding of its mission, and
    hopefully of the performance of its mission
    at the service of the transformation of
    Philippine society.
    INCULTURATION- it refers to the integral faith
    formation that is inclusive of the social
    dimension of faith or the formation of “faith
    in context”.
    e.g. senakulo, simbang gabi, pasyon
    LAY EMPOWERMENT –it refers to the
    empowerment given to the laity by virtue of
    their baptism & confirmation to lead in the
    work of social transformation.
    e.g. lectors, commentators, catechism, lay
    ministers
    CHURCH OF THE POOR- it is one of the
    pastoral priorities of the Church which
    promotes the active presence of the poor in
    the Church.
    e.g. CARITAS, PADE, Alay Kapwa, Reach-Out
    BASIC ECCLESIAL COMMUNITIES – it aims to
    make the parish as community of
    communities maximizing the role of the
    family as the basic cell of the Church.
    e.g. Block Rosary, Prayer Meeting, Bible
    Sharing, AGAPE
    RENEWED FAITH, RENEWED EVANGELIZATION-
    it is one of the pastoral priorities in the
    Church which taken as the main vehicle for
    renewal.
