The St. William Cathedral Church in Laoag City was filled with believers during the opening session of the diocesan tribunal for the proposed beatification and canonization of Niña Ruiz Abad from Sarrat, Ilocos Norte .Abad, at the age of 13, was declared by Pope Francis as a 'Servant of God,' marking the first of four steps toward sainthood. Her devoutness and strong devotion to the church, until her passing on August 16, 1993, due to a heart ailment, led to the recognition.
“Nakita natin ang daming dumalo and we are praying and hoping na siya na nga ang gusto din ni Lord na magkaroon tayo ng, by God's grace and by God's own time, hopefully, new saint… hindi pa tayo nakakasiguro, nagdarasal pa rin tayo kasi isa palang ang proseso,” Rev. Fr. Renato Mayugba, the Bishop of Laoag, said.This is a great honor for Abad’s family, especially her mother, who remembers her daughter as a kind and prayerful child.
