The Catholic Church in the Philippines has just launched a website (clergycongress2.org) to provide up-to-date information about the Second National Congress of the Clergy which will be held from 25-29 January 2010 at the World Trade Center in Pasay City. Around 6,000 priests and bishops from all over the country are expected to attend the event. Papal Preacher Fr. Raniero Cantalamesa, OFM Cap will be the Spiritual Retreat Preacher of the Congress.

The new website includes videos, news and links to podcasts and to other relevant sites and resources. I’ve heard that there are plans to livestream the Clergy Congress, so it is best to bookmark the site now so you don’t have to look for it when you need to watch the events unfold this January. The site is powered by WordPress, a Free/Open-Source content management system.
