A devotee who credits her health recovery to the "God the Father of All Mankind" reminded her fellow faithful about the importance of faith as they celebrated the religious figure’s feast day Sunday (Aug. 7).

"My faith brought me closer to God. Faith is the victory," said Lucina Lugod, 48, a resident of Barangay Balintawak, Talibon.

Lugod said her faith and devotion to the God the Father of All Mankind was strengthened when she underweant surgery for breast cancer on Feb. 12, 2021.

Her anxiety grew when she found out that the cancer cells grew abnormally and spread.

It was Sister Precy Aseneta-Macasaet, a missionary, vissionary and divine healer, who shared to her about God the Father and prayed for her recovery.

After praying, laboratory results showed she was negative of cancer cells.

"In those days I was thinking my chance for survival was very slim. I was emotionally and spiritually down including financial crises. But God the Father of All Mankind provides everything," she said. "Having faith is to trust in God, to believe in God's ability to sustain and uphold us."

On Sunday, she and her husband Christopher, 45, travelled to St. Joseph the Worker the Tagbilaran Cathderal-Shrine in Tagbilaran City, at least 109_km from Talibon, for Sunday's feast.

She met her fellow devotees and Sister Precy who were wearing white Filipiniana.

Earlier, Sister Precy and her group distributed food to at least 100 candle vendors.

It was in 2010 that Sister Precy, who is from Davao City, introduced the God the Father of All Mankind to Bohol province after following God’s will.

"It was God the Father who brought me to this place because He wants his children to know him,” said Sister Precy.

"God the Father's mercy and love is eternal. It is not only limitless, it flows from His heart of complete love and compassion for us," she added.

The feast of the God the Father of All Mankind is held every first Sunday of August, as a day of consecration to God the Father.

At 9 a.m. Sunday' Holy Mass officiated by Bishop Abet Uy, in his homily he told devotees and parishioners that faith is much more than passive belief. It is express our through action and the way we live.

He narrated that Abraham's faith in God was tested in a way that most of us will never know. But Abraham took God at His word, and became the father of our faith.

"Our devotion to God the Father means we have only one father in heaven. It means we have to see as one another as brothers and sisters. Faith is to believe of what you not see. The reward of the faith is to see what you believe," he said.

Bishop Uy also consecrated the image of the God the Father of All Mankind.

Sister Precy said more and more people have become devotees of the God the Father of All Mankind not just in Bohol province but as well in Cebu, Manila and Cagayan de Oro City.

She said he will never get tired of serving the God the Father of All Mankind for as long she lives.

"I am ready where He will send me," said Sister Precy who will visit Baguio City, Nueva Ecija and Tuguegarao City for her mission.
