Thank God for Christian Lawyers

I thank God for Christian lawyers who offer free legal services to those who fight corruption.

Atty. Jordan Pizarras personally appeared last October 3 in Antipolo RTC to be counsel for the whistle blower in the corruption in Cainta, Rizal. He could have delegated to his associates the court appearance, but to show his commitment to the cause, he took the time to appear as counsel in the case that we are fighting for two years now.

Yesterday, Atty Winnie Salumbides and Atty. Micah Reysio-Cruz finalized the PCEC statement of opposition for the confirmation of Atty. Sixto Brilliantes as Comelec Chair in support of Atty. Ferdie Rafanan. 

Today, we lost the fight against the confirmation but not the moral ascendancy that Atty Ferdie Rafanan stood for. We will continue to be with Bro. Ferdie as he face a hostile chairman in the Comelec.

i thank God for Atty. Anacleto Lacanilao III who presented to the office of the Executive Secretary the killings of the Manobo Dulangan tribal communities on the issue of ancestral domain that was granted IFMA to private group. 

I pray the Lord will provide local lawyers in North Cotabato area who will help the Manobo Dulangan people in this fight for their rights.
