SELAYANG: Father’s Day celebration at the parish level was initiated by the Catechetical Team of the Chapel of Christ the King (CTK).

Albet said that the journey of fathers to provide food for their families began then.
The Team prepared a slide show presentation depicting verses from the Bible accompanied by photographs of fathers of CTK.
