Fr. Jocis Syquia on Filipino Catholics' observance of Holy Week at home: We can use this opportunity to become better Christians, especially in maximizing resources of Church like online masses.
Fr. Syquia: We can really maximize our time to really focus on what is the meaning of Holy Week so we can experience the journey and resurrection of our Lord.
Fr. Syquia: We use this time to recollect ourselves and what is important in our lives. We should limit our use of social media.
Fr. Syquia: The Lord is trying to point something important to us during this pandemic. Our pandemic is not something that just came out but as a result of our actions.
Fr. Syquia: We can only do so much. If we do our part, our Lord will do His. We have to learn how to carry our crosses, so we need the guidance of the Church.
