Six months after Lapu Lapu festival attack, the Filipino community is still reeling

October 24, 2025

The past six months have been a blur for Rev. Francis Galvan.

The pastor at Sacred Heart Parish in Delta, B.C., has walked the scene of the April 26 Lapu Lapu Day festival attack in Vancouver, listening to stories of devastated Filipino community members. He has sprinkled holy water at the East Vancouver neighbourhood and attended the memorial for victims at Holy Rosary cathedral.
