Mindanao cardinal deplores Cotabato chapel grenade attack
(CBCP News).
Cardinal Orlando Quevedo, the archbishop emeritus of Cotabato, denounced the grenade attack at a village chapel in the southern Philippine city of Cotabato on Pentecost Sunday, May 19.
The blast hurt two churchgoers attending a Bible service at the Sto. Niño Chapel in the city’s Barangay Rosary Heights 3.
Initial reports revealed two men riding a motorcycle were behind the attack.
Quevedo said the “dastardly bombing” was a “horrendous sacrilegious act that cries out to heaven.”
“The crime is doubly condemnable when committed against neighbors gathered to worship God in a sacred place,” he said.
