Pastoral Letter on Fraternity (16 Feb 2023)

This is the recording of the meditation given by Fr. Cayo Estrada on May 14 via Google Meet. In this meditation, Fr. Cayo dwells on Christian Hope.

*Notes:
- Please pray the opening prayer on your own since this part was not recorded:
"My Lord and My God, I firmly believe that You are here. That You see me, and that You hear me. I adore You with profound reverence. I ask your pardon for my sins, and for the grace to spend this time of prayer fruitfully. My Immaculate Mother, St. Joseph my father and lord, my Guardian Angel, intercede for me"
- There are some audio disruptions (particularly around the 22:00 mark) due to participants who mistakenly unmuted their audio

Encountering Christ in Prayer

Apostolic Mission

Questions for us to ponder:
1) When making resolutions, do I strive to look for concrete areas that I could improve on constantly?
2) How have the COVID circumstances enriched the way I do my examination of conscience?
3) How can I better concretize the way I express my gratitude to God and others?
