Arroyo was with her husband, former First Gentleman Mike Arroyo, their sons, Dato and Mikey, and grandchildren.

The priest offered prayers and blessings to the Arroyo family.

After the Mass, the former president delivered 7-minute speech, where she expressed her gratitude to her supporters.

"It's good to be home with you at last," said Arroyo, who also shared her experience while under hospital arrest.
