Ambassador and Mrs. Teodoro L. Locsin Jr. joined the Filipino community in commemorating the 127th Anniversary of Philippine Independence with a special Mass at Our Lady of Victories Church in London.

In his message, Ambassador Locsin paid tribute to the Filipino community in the UK, highlighting their strength as bearers of national identity. He spoke of how Filipinos, in making the UK their second home, have brought with them their faith, culture, language, and dignity — enriching British society while staying true to who they are as Filipinos.
