An Eid al-Adha message, from Fr Bobby Yap SJ

17 June 2024
Today, we wish our Muslim brothers and sisters a joyful Eid al-Adha, the Feast of Sacrifice, as they observe this festival of the prophet Ibrahim’s sacrifice, and the culmination of the Hajj pilgrimage.
A remembrance of one’s radical eagerness to accept God’s orders, may this feast remind us of the sacrifices we must make when asked, and to exercise kindness and magnanimity in any way we can.
Eid Mubarak!
Fr Bobby Yap SJ
University President

"Kaya ngayong araw, higit sa pagtanggap ng diploma, tinatanggap ninyo ang isang mas mabigat na atas: ang maging katiwala ng pag-asa . It is of a future that is still being fought for. So I call on you: Tumindig. Tumaya. Magmahal. Stand up, especially when it is not popular. Take a risk, especially when the truth is being twisted. Love, especially when hope is being mocked by others."
