Prayer Rally
for Sentosa 27 at the Chapel of San Lorenzo Ruiz
Fr.
Erno Diaz, chaplain at the Chapel of San Lorenzo
Ruiz officiated a special intention mass for the
Sentosa 27 Nurses. The special intention is to
give these nurses strength, courage and faith
as they face the charges filed against them. With
the initiative of the Philippine Nurses Association
of New York, a prayer rally was kicked off today
together with PNA North Carolina. Then, every
Sunday thereafter, other chapters of the Philippine
Nurses Association of America (PNAA) had volunteered
to offer a special intention mass for these courageous
nurses who are standing for their rights and seeking
justice not only for themselves but also for other
foreign educated nurses who are victims of unfair
labor practice.
If
you happen to know friends and family who may
be in the vicinity of these different states,
please share the following information so they
can participate and show their spiritual support
to our kababayans (countrymen):

This page will be updated to include future prayer
rally for 2008 that will be sponsored by other
PNA Chapters all across the United States. In
addition for asking Divine Intervention, a legal
defense trust fund had been initiated by the Sentosa
Nurses to provide financial assistance towards
legal fees. For more information about this initiative,
please contact info@pnanewyork.org.
To
quote today's 1st reading from Sirach 35:12-14,
16-18- The Lord is a God of Justice, who knows
no favorites. Though not unduly partial toward
the weak, yet He hears the cry of the oppressed.
The Lord is not deaf to the wail of the orphan,
nor to the widow when she pours out her complaint.
The one who serves God willingly is heard; his
petition reaches the heavens. The prayer of the
lowly pierces the clouds; it does not rest till
it reaches its goal, nor will it withdraw till
the Most High responds, judges justly and affirms
the right, and the Lord will not delay.
Let
us pray that God hears our pleas and petitions
for the Sentosa nurses and that justice will prevail.
