Early life and education

Panergo was born on September 7, 1971, in Lucban, Quezon. He studied High school at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Seminary in Sariaya. He studied philosophy at Saint Francis de Sales Major Seminary in Lipa, Batangas, and theology at Saint Alphonsus School of Theology in his hometown Lucena. He went on to study at Saint Louis University in Baguio City, where he received a Licentiate in Guidance and Counseling.[1] He then earned his Licentiate in Sacred Theology[2] at Institut Notre-Dame de Vie [fr] in Venasque, France.[3]

Ministry

[edit]

Priesthood

[edit]

Panergo was ordained to the priesthood for the Diocese of Lucena on September 8, 1997, at the Saint Ferdinand Cathedral.[3] He was then assigned as vicar of the Minor Basilica of Saint Michael the Archangel in Tayabas, an assignment he held until 1998.[1] He was also a team ministry member at St. Roche Parish in Barangay Ilasan, Tayabas City, from 1998 to 2000. In Unisan, he was parish priest of St. Roche Parish in Barangay Panaon from 2000 to 2002. Subsequently, he became the spiritual director of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary Seminary in Lucban from 2002 to 2009 and 2012 to 2015.[1] He was then appointed as rector of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Seminary in Sariaya in 2015.[1]

Within the Diocese of Lucena, he was the director of the diocese's Commission on Vocations.[2]

Episcopate

[edit]

On October 4, 2025, Pope Leo XIV appointed Panergo as the fifth Bishop of Boac, replacing Marcelino Antonio Maralit, who, in 2024, was transferred to the Diocese of San Pablo by Leo's predecessor, Pope Francis.[3] Prior to his appointment, the diocese was overseen by its diocesan administrator, Elino P. Esplana, since November 2024.[4]

He was consecrated bishop at St. Ferdinand Cathedral, Lucena, Quezon on December 1, 2025, and was installed the next day at the Immaculate Conception Cathedral Parish in Boac, Marinduque by Lucena Bishop Mel Rey Uy.[5]
