The spiritual strengthening of persons deprived of liberty (PDLs) centers on personal transformation, renewed hope, and preparation for successful reintegration into society.

In line with this, the Provincial Government of Masbate, through the Masbate Provincial Jail, has initiated the celebration of a monthly Holy Mass every third Tuesday of the month inside the provincial jail.

According to Provincial Jail Warden Rodel Estrella, the celebration of the Holy Mass is the result of coordination with the Prison Ministry of the Diocese of Masbate.

The Holy Mass was officiated by Reverend Father Manuel Lomboy, together with the Prison Ministry team, providing the PDLs with an opportunity to strengthen their faith, renew their hope, and reflect on their journey toward positive change.

Through this spiritual initiative, the Masbate Provincial Government continues to recognize the importance of faith, compassion, and spiritual guidance in supporting the rehabilitation and reintegration of persons deprived of liberty into the community.
