COVID-19 may have impeded some traditional avenues of evangelism, but it has not stopped parish catechizing from advancing.
At the Feb 2 Mass, exclusively organized for those serving in the Catechetical Ministry from the parishes/sub-parishes of Sacred Heart Cathedral (SHC), Church of Mary Immaculate Bukit Padang, St Paul Dontozidon, St John Kopungit and Our Lady Queen of Peace Kobusak, 183 catechists/facilitators/helpers were “commissioned in the new norm” via Zoom.
The zoomed Mass, which providentially fell on the Feast of Presentation of the Lord, was held in conjunction with the local observance of Catechetical Sunday originally planned for Jan 31.
