Let priests and faithful work together to witness the love of Jesus to the society!

Coat of Arms

Motto

”As I Have Loved You" (John 13:34)

Explanation of Coat of Arms

In the world, Love of God shines like gold, though Jesus (the Ideogram of Love). This Love, through the work of the Holy Spirit, continues to burn like a flame, to sanctify the world and attract all peoples to the Father (red). The Church, founded on the apostle and Mary, is like a boat that across the seas to announce the Gospel (blue representing the sea and the sky). At the same time, it is the reflection of the Celestial Jerusalem.
