The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines has elevated a diocesan shrine and parish dedicated to Saint John Paul II in Bataan into a national shrine.Located in Hermosa, Bataan, the shrine and parish are dedicated to the late popular Pontiff who visited a refugee center in Morong, Bataan which temporarily served as home to around 400,000 Vietnamese, Laotians, and Cambodians who fled their countries during the late 1970s.
Balanga Bishop Ruperto C. Santos expressed his gratitude and happiness for Bataan’s new national shrine citing it as “the gift of the Philippine Church to the whole world.” The country’s 28th national shrine was originally located at the spot where St. John Paul celebrated a holy mass for the refugees. It is now the Bataan Technological Park in Morong.
