Archbishop Jose Cardinal Advincula of Manila, the country’s oldest diocese, asked all shrines, parishes, oratories, and chapels in the diocese to pray the Oratio Imperata for Integrity, Truth, and Justice.
“This prayer is to replace the Prayer of the Faithful during the celebration of the Holy Mass—a rare practice reserved only for the gravest of circumstances—as a clear expression of the urgency and seriousness of our situation,” the Cardinal said in his pastoral letter released on October 2, 2025.
