Parish Priest of Sts Peter and Paul in the Catholic Diocese of EL Obied James William Silgat advised Christians to repent and think of God’s love to humanity.
He explained that the faithful should stop all ceremonies and other occasions in order to pray and ask mercy from God.
Fr William appealed to the Christians to sympathize with the poor and share what they have during this time of Lent.
The parish priest mentioned that fasting is not necessarily reducing food ratio, but to abstain from wrong doing and pray for God’s forgiveness.
