San Carlos Diocese Bishop Gerardo Alminaza has outlined a series of actions for his congregation to actively pursue peace and community healing in response to the ongoing unrest on Negros Island. In a pastoral letter, entitled 'Embracing Our Christian Duty to Work for Integral Peace' to be read in all anticipated and ascension Sunday masses, Alminaza encouraged the diocese to engage in various peace-building activities.

as a prayer for peace and for a dialogue among all parties involved in the armed conflict to address the roots of the unrest. The letter emphasized the role of Christian values in fostering a compassionate community and highlighted the teachings of Pope Francis on the importance of dialogue and solidarity. As the diocese also marks Mother's Day, the bishop draws parallels between maternal nurturing and the broader nurturing of the community through peace efforts.
