 #FiestaSeΓ±or2026 | This year's celebration is guided by the theme: “In Santo NiΓ±o We Are One.”



The theme “In Santo NiΓ±o We Are One” is the Church’s call for unity in Christ. It is in Christ that our diverse lives find profound meaning and a singular purpose: “to know, to love, and to serve him, and so to come to paradise” (CCC 1721).
The Filipino people recognized this call through the venerable image of the Child Jesus, lovingly called the Batobalani sa Gugma (Magnet of Love). It is through the loving gaze of the Infant King that devotees are drawn to the one God who is Love, fostering hope for peace and unity within the Christian community and the world. This fulfills the Lord's own prayer: “that they may all be one” (Jn 17:21).
This call for oneness is especially urgent today. In the context of the Church's synodal journey, the recent election of Pope Leo XIV, and ongoing human conflicts, the Fiesta SeΓ±or is a proclamation of peace in the name of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace.
In celebrating the Fiesta SeΓ±or 2026, let us, the devotees of SeΓ±or Santo NiΓ±o, answer the call to “pursue what makes for peace and to mutual upbuilding” (Rom 14:19) in our acts of devotion and mercy, as we profess by faith that IN SANTO NIΓ‘O WE ARE ONE.
