Church, militants mark Martial Law anniversary

Church groups joined militants and students at Luneta Park in Manila in show of solidarity against the “rising tyranny and dictatorship,” saying they were unable to “move on” when Filipinos remained “oppressed and suppressed.”

The Association of Major Religious Superiors in the Philippines, Sangguniang Laiko ng Pilipinas, Promotion of Church Peoples Response, Nicodemus and the Religious Discernment Group offered a Mass for “Dignity and Peace” at San Agustin Church as part of their commemoration of “the dark period of Martial Law" and celebration "with hope" of the International Day of Peace.
