"Cantare
amantis est", This expression from the great Father of
the church, St. Augustine could be translated as "singing
is of loving". Indeed a heart in love cannot but express
this feeling in a song.
The
Musical play "Nasaan si Hesu?" sings about the poignant
search of man for the face of the ever-loving God midst the
rubbles of disasters and calamities beyond human control. It
is, likewise, the search of man for the ever-faithful God who
ever abandons man in his infidelities.
The
musical play “Nasaan si Hesus?” should not only
touch our Christian faith and sensibilities but should also
challenge us to concretely involve ourselves in responding to
the plight of our brothers in their need. I encourage each Christian
who wants to take his Christianity seriously to support the
Sagip Buhay Radio School-on-Air by patronizing the project “Nasaan
si Hesus?” in order to generate fund for its continuity.
I commend the Catholic Media Network (CMN) led by Fr. Francis
B. Lucas for providing effective help to our small and poor
communities in the areas of disaster mitigation; preparedness,
response and rehabilitation.
