Gloria S. Canama, from Tangub City, Misamis Occidental, was a member of the
first group of Filipino Columban Lay Missionaries to go overseas, to Pakistan in
1991.
‘The fire which is in the sun, the fire which is in the earth,
that fire is in my own heart.’ Upanishad
My childhood dream was always to be a religious sister. The seed must have
been sown by the Columban missionaries, Sisters and priests, who were my
educators and friends from my early years. I was baptized by the late Columban
Fr Paul Cooney in St Michael’s Parish, Tangub City, Misamis Occidental.
