Prayer of the Youth
on the occasion of the CBCP Year of the Youth

Almighty Father, God of life and love,
through time and ages, You love us.
You trust and choose us
to participate in Your saving work.

Bless us, Your young people,
with Your grace.
Give us the gift of living life to the full
by encountering Your Son
in a personal way
and sustaining a relationship with Him,
by learning what life truly is
from His words and works,
from His filial relationship with You,
And by living in true and fruitful
communion with You
and with one another.

Empower us through Your Holy Spirit
to stand firm in the faith.
May we bring our fellow young people
closer to You so that together,
we become agents of change
and builders of a society of justice and
solidarity, love and peace.

Enable all of us:
Your young people,
together with those ministering to us
in the Church, in families and in society,
to make a decisive response
to our universal vocation;
to live fully and fruitfully
by doing everything in love
as we follow Jesus Christ
along the path of genuine trust in You.

In communion with the rest of the Church,
we pray that this CBCP Year of the Youth
become a kairos time
for the youth ministry of Your Church
and a new springtime for us,
Filipino youth: a special period
of growing in Your grace
through our living in youthful holiness
and through our effort to reach out
as a Church to those waiting for Your love.

Together with our Blessed Mother,
our model in giving oneself
entirely to Your will,
we lift this prayer to You
in Jesus Christ, Your Son,
our Friend, Brother and Lord,
in the Power of the Holy Spirit,
now and forever. Amen.

Theme: Kinabuhing Gi-ula, Pagtuong Gimantala
(Life that is Offered, Faith that is Proclaimed)

Rationale of the Logo

In designing the event logo of the canonization of Blessed Pedro Calungsod, we followed the following rules of:
  1. Uniqueness
    - Face of Blessed Pedro Calungsod in contemporary art form
  2. Timelessness (Memorable)
    - Classic circular shape and design
  3. Adaptability
    - Can be reduced without losing essential elements
  4. Scalability
    - Can be reduced without losing essential elements
  5. Simplicity
    - Containing 5 basic elements


  • Title of the event
  • Image if the candidate
  • Symbol of martyrdom with the Cross
  • Important Years and Places
  • Theme


Thus, in the design the following elements were placed:

  1. Title of the Event in red color
    - Prominence and Visibility
  2. Converted image of Blessed Pedro
    - Timeless image
    - Contemporary comic art form
  3. The ten green leaves of the palm of martyrdom
    - Ten themes in the life of Blessed Pedro
  4. The islands of Guam and Cebu inserted in the palm
    - Place of origin and martyrdom
  5. The Cross in red color at the tip of the palm
    - Sharing in the supreme sacrifice of the Lord
  6. The years 1672 and 2012
    - Year of Martyrdom
    - Year of Canonization
