BAGUIO CITY — The bishop, who fought to protect Baguio’s pine trees, was laid to rest on Saturday (July 6) by the Catholic faithful. ADVERTISEMENTCenzon was hailed for upholding “the dignity of creation in his advocacy on the care of the environment” by bishops who led his funeral Mass at the Baguio Cathedral. Among the bishops were Cotabato Archbishop emeritus Orlando Quevedo and Cenzon’s successor Bishop Victor Bendico. Raised in Baguio, Cenzon enjoyed trekking mountains and crossing rivers to meet and share food with people whom he ministered, the bishops said. And how foolish we are that we insist on our language, retranslating everything.” (Editor: Leti Boniol)ADVERTISEMENTRead NextLATEST STORIESMOST READ
