Robert Canton, a Cebuano who is now residing in Stockton, California, was unanimously reelected to his third three-year term to represent the Vatican-based International Catholic Charismatic Renewal Services (ICCRS) to the North and Central Americas as well as the Caribbean countries, during the ICCRS meeting last Nov. 18-23 in Bethlehem.
Canton will represent around 16 million people in the region who are active in the Catholic Charismatic Renewal movement.
Canton was first elected to ICCRS in 2007, and has served in the Finance and Newsletter Committees.
In September 2010, he facilitated the first North American ICCRS-sponsored International Leadership Training Course that was held at Franciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio.
Canton has traveled to many countries as an ICCRS speaker, the latest of which was in Brazil in July 2013, and to conduct workshops and healing rallies at International Catholic Charismatic Conferences.
He is also one of the 25 invitees worldwide to participate in the Colloquium on Deliverance to be held in the Vatican in April 2014.
He is also scheduled to conduct Healing Crusades in Uganda, Africa in July 2014 and in the Philippines in November 2014.
He was born and raised in Cebu City. He went to the United States in 1973 after obtaining his Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting from the University of San Carlos. He opted for early retirement from his job as Senior Auditor-Appraiser from the State of California in 2008 to devote full time on his ministry.
