FR. MARS ROSALES LEAVES TO HIS NEW MISSION, AUSTRALIA

Last March 15, 2009, Fr Marcelino "Mars" Rosales left for his new mission in the Diocese of Bunbury, Australia. Fr Mars is the third MSP missionary to be sent to this diocese located at the western side of Australia. He is now joined by Fr Jaybee Bonghanoy, and Msgr Tom Gonzalez.

On the day before his departure, a mission-sending ceremony was held at the MSP Central House chapel in Palanan, Makati City. Some of the friends of Fr Mars attended the ceremony.

Fr Mars was once a missionary to South Korea and the Cook Islands. Australia is his third mission posting.
