THE month of October ushered in a period of quiet rejoicing at the Couples for Christ Home Office (HO) in Cubao, Quezon City – daily Masses are now held at the HO.

Held in the main lobby every 12 noon, this recent blessing was warmly welcomed by CFC’s fulltime staff and pastoral workers alike. So far, priests from different places have said Mass at the HO, all of whom have enriched the faith of the mass-goers through their inspiring and thought-provoking homilies.

There are plans to involve the nearby chapters and clusters in the liturgy of the Mass by their attendance at and sponsorship of the daily Mass so that this beautiful Eucharistic celebration can be a permanent fixture at the Home Office, thus enhancing the faith of the workers and providing them greater inspiration to serve.

CFC is grateful to the Archdiocese of Cubao for granting permission for the regular masses. Visitors to the HO are welcome to share in the Eucharistic celebration. By Tina Rodriguez
