The Cathedral of the Diocese of Naval and the churches of Almeria and Biliran

The installation of the new bishop of Naval in the person of the Most Rev. Rex Ramirez last January 12, 2018 enabled me to visit the Naval Cathedral and some other parishes in the island of Biliran.  Just a few days before the installation, a massive landslide covered an entire settlement near Naval, some roads were made impassable, and the approach to two bridges was destroyed.

The approach to the bridge got destroyed. 



There was a settlement in this area and all the houses were buried under mud and rocks together with the residents.
