\u201cI am happy to announce to you that the Archbishop of Davao and President of the CBCP, His Excellency Most Rev. Romulo G. Valles – who was temporarily incapacitated by a mild stroke in May 2020 – has recovered very well,\u201d he said. “He has expressed his gratitude for all the prayers and moral support that his brother bishops have extended to him during the past few months of his recuperation.\u201d<\/p>\n

David said upon the approval of his doctors, Valles has expressed readiness to report back to work.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease be informed, therefore that after getting a clean bill of health from his doctors, Archbishop Valles has signified his readiness to resume office as our CBCP President,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Valles is set to preside the CBCP Permanent Council meeting online before the end of the month.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe will already preside at our next CBCP Permanent Council meeting by Zoom, which is scheduled on November 25, 2020. As Vice-President.<\/p>\n

I assured him that I would stay by his side and continue to assist him in whatever way I can,\u201d the Catholic prelate added.<\/p>\n

He reminded that \u201cAll communications with the Office of the CBCP President may now be redirected to Archbishop Romulo Valles.\u201d<\/p>\n

David was appointed by Valles as acting president of the CBCP on July 17 after he suffered a mild stroke in May.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring those months of his absence, Archbishop Valles had appointed the undersigned. Bishop of Kalookan and current CBCP Vice-President, to temporarily assume the role of Acting President for the CBCP, as provided for by our statutes. The appointment ends as soon as Archbishop Valles is ready to resume his office as President,\u201d David added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
