‘Beware of fake priests in cemeteries’ – CBCP

THE Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) has again warned the faithful to be wary of people posing as priests and offering their services in exchange for money, as Filipinos begin flocking to cemeteries to pay respects to the dead.

Fr. Jerome Secillano, executive secretary of the CBCP Committee on Public Affairs, on Sunday explained that a real priest does not peddle his services inside the cemetery and ask for money to bless the dead.
