1987 The ACTAS
With the support of the 7th Superior General, Rev. M. Maria Assumpta David and the members of the General Council, the Archdiocesan Tribunal assembled for a series of meetings between February 2 -15, 1987, discussing the documents gathered by the Historical Commission (updated in 1976), and concluding with a position paper, the ACTAS, which was formally presented to Cardinal Sin on 2 March 1987.
The Tribunal’s conclusion was expressed in the following statement: “One reason in favor of the beatification of Mother Ignacia is that in the first few hundred years of the Church’s life here in the Philippines, there was in the person of this woman a shining example of a life of profound Christian holiness. What could be better proof of the fruitfulness of the Christian religion on the Filipino faithful, not too long after the coming of the faith to the Philippines shores”. Cardinal Sin personally brought the ACTAS to Rome.
