CHARITY Diva Token Lizares with Las Vegas balladeer Jun Polistico, fast rising Kiel Alo, the Los Angeles i-SING champion 2017 Alexa Peller and Bossanova Queen of Negros Joanne Bernal will take the center stage in a pre-birthday tribute to Mama Mary dubbed as “A gift for Mary” whose nativity falls on September 8.
This charity concert is set on September 6, 2019, 7 p.m. at Grand La Proa ballroom, L’Fisher hotel in Bacolod City.
Lizares said this charity concert aims to raise funds for construction of the Our Lady of Lourdes Parish in Barangay Taloc, Bago City which has long been dilapidated.
“God has been using me and other world-class entertainers to make use of our talents to help the needs of others especially a dilapidated Church in Taloc. God has continued to inspire me and my group to share our talents without expecting any return. I hope that our fellow Bacolodnons and Negrenses will support this charity concert so that we will be able to build a Church for Mama Mary,” she said.
Rev. Fr. Louan P. Torrefranca, Parish Priest said Mama Mary is known for Her miraculous intervention, “We believe that the Our Lady of Lourdes will bring people together with charitable hearts to work for healing and for the completion of the Church named after Her which can be refuge of her children especially the sick ones. We are appealing for those who can share their benevolent support in making us realize this dream to have a new home for Mama Mary and the Marian devotees. May God, who has begun His good works in you bring it to fulfillment.”
