Who
We Are
Tahanan (which means home in Filipino) is the Capellanía Filipina in Madrid — a spiritual home for Filipino migrants and their families who seek faith, fellowship, and support in their journey abroad.
Tahanan has been entrusted to the Society of the Divine Word (SVD) by the Archdiocese of Madrid to welcome, guide and accompany the Filipino community through worship, pastoral care, and integration programs.
