Bienvenido "Benny" Solon Tudtud (22 March 1931 – 26 June 1987), also known as Tatay Bido, was a Filipino prelate of the Catholic Church. He served as auxiliary bishop of Dumaguete (1968–1971), bishop of Iligan (1971–1977), and bishop of Marawi (1977–1987). He was integral to Christian–Muslim relations in Marawi, the only predominantly Muslim region of the Philippines.

Biography

edit

Early life

edit

Tudtud was born 22 March, 1931 in Cebu City, Philippines.[1] He was ordained a priest in 1959, at the age of 27.[1]

Episcopacy

edit

Tudtud was consecrated in 1968 as an auxiliary bishop for the Diocese of Dumaguete.[1]

Bishop of Marawi

edit

The Prelature of Marawi was founded by Pope Paul VI in 1976, and Tudtud was made its first bishop the following year.[1]

In 1984, Tudtud invited Carmelites to establish a monastery in his diocese to pray for inter-religious peace.[2]

Tudtud's episcopal tenure in Marawi saw several attacks against Catholics. In 1978, a religious sister, Delia Coronel, was kidnapped and later returned safely. On 4 June 1986, Father Michel de Gigord, then chaplain of Mindanao State University, was kidnapped. This kidnapping was evidently related to the political upheaval in the wake of the People Power Revolution, specifically Mohammad Ali Dimaporo's removal as governor of Lanao del Sur.[3] On 11 July 1986, 10 cloistered nuns (from the Marawi Carmel founded two years prior) along with a Protestant missionary were kidnapped by "Barracudas," militant groups with reported ties to Ali Dimaporo.[4][5][6] Tudtud was in Manila during the initial kidnapping, but he returned to Marawi with Bishop Fernando Capalla of Illigan to help secure their release.[7]

Death in plane crash

edit

On 26 June 1987, Tudtud was among 50 individuals killed in the crash of Philippine Airlines Flight 206.[8][9] The plane was heading to Baguio, where Tudtud was to attend a conference.[10]

Legacy

edit

In 2020, in celebration of the 500th anniversary of the Christianity in the Philippines, the Center for Theology, Religious Studies, and Ethics at the University of Santo Tomas hosted an online symposium series about Tudtud.[11] In one of these interviews, Fr. Brendan Lovett, SSC—who had personally met Tudtud—remembered Tudtud as a "contemplative" who recognized the causes of strained Muslim-Christian relations and worked to heal them before there were many books on inter-religious dialogue.[12][13]

In 2022, Ateneo de Davao University completed work on an auditorium space named in his honor.[14]
