MANILA - Puerto Princesa Bishop Socrates Mesiona has a reminder for Catholics on the first day of the new year.

According to a report from the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines, Mesiona on Tuesday reminded the faithful to be bearers of good news and not fake news.

During the mass held at the Puerto Princesa Cathedral for the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, Mesiona proposed three possible New Year's resolutions, one of which is for Catholics to be bearers of good news.

“Like the shepherds in the Gospel, let us all be carrier of good news, not gossip. Faith news and not false news,” he said.

“These days, there’s so much negativity in this world, we need more good news to uplift the spirit of our brothers and sisters,” Mesiona added.
