Novaliches Bishop Roberto Gaa conferred the Pro Ecclesia et Pro Pontifice to Gallegos on Jan. 14 at the San Lorenzo Ruiz Parish in Quezon City.
In an interview with Church-run Radio Veritas, Gallegos said she didn’t expect that she will receive such recognition from the Church.
“Everything I do for God comes from my heart; I’m happy to do it even if it’s difficult,” she said. “I think, I am just an instrument of God’s grace to people; by being nice to people, giving smile at them, you’re giving them hope,” added Gallegos.
