Rocco Nacino portray's San Pedro Calungsod Life Story on GMA News TV

Watch Rocco Nacino portray's San Pedro Calungsod Life Story on GMA News TV's San Pedro Calungsod TV Special.

The Philippines gains a new Saint this October 21 in Pedro Calungsod.

Calungsod will only be the second Filipino officially declared a Saint after Pope John Paul II canonized Lorenzo Ruiz de Manila in 1987.

Very little is known about Pedro Calungsod. GMA News TV Channel 11 sets out to introduce him to the audience - with a television special dramatizing his life.

Pedro Calungsod was born in 1655 in what was then the Diocese of Cebu, which covered the islands of Panay and Mindanao, as well as the Pacific island of Guam. An assistant lay catechist, he was killed “in hatred of the faith” by Chamorro natives while trying to defend his fellow missionary Jesuit priest Diego Luis de San Vitores.

Through historical reenactments interspersed with interviews with Church experts and followers, GMA News TV's provides the audience with a deeper understanding and appreciation of Calungsod’s life. Young actor Rocco Nacino portrays the title role with much sensitivity.

"San Pedro Calungsod" will air on Sunday, October 21, at 8:40 p.m., the day Calungsod is canonized.

The canonization is a big event for the over 80% Catholics in the Philippines. At least 5000 Filipinos are flying to the Vatican for Calungsod's canonization, including Jiggy Manicad – who will be reporting live for GMA News and Public Affairs.

I got a TikTok Viewer Job Offer from Skyrocket Studio Ph- Scam or Not?

Earlier today, I got a message on my Whatsapp and telling me to become a TikTok Viewer with an attractive salary and commission. The message says it's a part-time job and I can work from Home. Legit or not? So I ask the sender who he/she is and how did she manage to get my Whatsapp number. She told me she was from Skyrocket Studio Ph and she got my number from Whatsapp, Linkedin and/or Telegram. She's not sure actually where she got my number.
