The St. Stephen Protomartyr Parish #BantayBalota2025 Special Coverage was a remarkable success, marked by unity, dedication, and unwavering service. This milestone event showcased the power of community and faith in action, as the parish played its part in ensuring a well-informed and peaceful electoral process.
At the heart of this achievement were the Parokya Patrollers—a dynamic, dedicated and devoted group of volunteers who unrelentingly rendered their time and talents. From early preparations during the test broadcast to real-time reporting and post-event reflections, the Parokya Patrollers exemplified the true spirit of servant leadership and civic responsibility. Their commitment ensured that accurate, timely, and relevant information reached the parishioners and the broader community.
This initiative not only strengthened democratic participation but also reflected the parish’s mission to be a Church that listens, guides, and walks with the people—especially in crucial moments such as the elections.
The parish led by the passionate and transformational leader, parish priest Rev. Fr. Paulo B. Barandon extends its heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed to the success of this endeavor. The #BantayBalota2025 Special Coverage which aired at 93.1 FM and live broadcast at St. Stephen Protomartyr FB page stands as a shining testament to what can be achieved when faith and action come together in service of the common good.
Padayon, Parokya! Till next!
