When asked “Based on your experience of attending the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, what aspects of its celebration do you think needs more improvement?” 24 percent of the respondents also answered choir and song selection, followed by priest homily and church ambiance which was tied at 20 percent, Mass readers at five percent, and friendliness of Church volunteers at four percent.
In a statement released on Tuesday, May 4, VTS head Brother Clifford Sorita said across age groups, these concerns vary.
“Results would similarly reveal that different age group would have different concerns while attending the Mass. For those ages 13- 20 (teens) their concern would be the Church ambiance; for those 21-39 years old (young adults) it would be the sound system, for those 40-60 years old (adults) it would be choir and song selection, and finally for those 61 and above (elderly) their top concern was the homily of the priest,” he said.

The Catholic Church’s highest official in the southern Philippines on Friday endorsed a term extension for ex-separatist leader Murad Ebrahim as head of an autonomous Muslim region.
Murad, who leads the Bangsamoro Transitional Authority (BTA), told BenarNews last month that he was lobbying to have his term extended beyond its scheduled expiry in 2022. He said he needed more time to pursue reforms hampered by the coronavirus pandemic and threats from militants linked to Islamic State.
“Elections in 2022 would simply erode whatever fragile gains the Bangsamoro Transitional Authority shall have obtained within the transition period,” Cardinal Orlando Quevedo, the archbishop emeritus of Cotabato, said in a statement.
