Quote:
“Following the many tragedies that the Philippines has and continues to experience, Bukas Palad has dedicated 2014 to singing of hope and healing. We proclaim God’s words, “Huwag Kang Mangamba. Be not afraid,” as we visit various communities, to sing and to pray with our church and our people. It is our hope that our concerts in North America will help Filipino communities be one with our nation as we face the long road of healing and rebuilding with the love, hope, joy and generosity of Christ.”—Justin Pantaleon, Bukas Palad Member and Lead organizer.
