 Father Cirilo Nacorda was kidnapped on June 8, 1994, and was released three months later, but not before fifteen of his companions were killed and the remaining 25 captives, mostly teachers and health workers, were finally released.Kidnapping remains a genuine threat for church workers and priests in Basilan.But admirably, not a single one of them, including the lay workers, are intimidated by it, or retreat because of fear.
