National Laity Week Opening at Santa Clara de Montefalco- Pasig
Laiko Post Quarantine Conversations I
Dear Friends, Bros and Sisters,
May I forward to you the Post Quarantine Conversations among the Lay Leaders of the CBCP Laiko. It is a long video but Bishop Pabillo shared his reflections (from 3 minutes 30 seconds up to 26:00) for only 23 minutes. Please watch.
Also, pls listen intently on the question/issue on “Religious Services” (at 24 mins up to 26 mins) as Essential Services.
Please feel free to pass and send to us your insights and inputs.
Thanks.

Hear the Call and Promise for Unity and Solidarity”
“Shema: Dinggin ang Daing ng Inang Kalikasan; Dinggin ang Pagtangis
ng Maralita; Dinggin ang Tawag at Pangako ng Pagkakabuklod-buklod”
The Launching of the NLW 2020 will be held on September 19, 2020, 9:00 A.M. to 12:00 noon in the Diocese of Pasig, while the Closing Event will be on September 26, 2020, 8:00 A.M.-12:00 noon in the Archdiocese of Cebu. A Luzon Celebration will also be held on September 20, 2020, 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m., to be hosted by the Archdiocese of Lipa.
We will be using zoom platform for these activities and will be cross-posted live at the Facebook Pages of the CBCP News, Sangguniang Laiko ng Pilipinas, Diocese of Pasig, Diocese of Cebu and Lipa.

Dear fellow youth ministers,
Greetings as we remember today Our Lady of Sorrows!
As part of our effort to be near you and support you in your ministry in these trying times, may we share with you this resource/ reference material as regards COVID19 and mental health.
We are grateful to the CBCP-Episcopal Commission on Health Care for sharing this with us!
We hope that you will find this useful as we all strive to accompany our young people in this time of the pandemic, with its distressful effect on everyone’s well being.
Let us continue to keep one another in prayer. Through the intercession of our Blessed Mother, may our sorrow be turned into joy–joy that comes from her Son, our Lord Jesus.
Yours sincerely in Christ,
Rev. Fr. CONEGUNDO B. GARGANTA
