Sharing： 2018 Holy Family Feast Day

The Mass for the Holy Family Feast Day at Holy Family Church Shenzhen was celebrated on December 30, 2016 4:15 p.m. (late for around 45 minutes to wait several priests). We invited the priests, sisters and parishioners from other Churches to attend the Mass.  Our pastor Fr. Lu was the main celebrant.    There were 12 other priests and 10 sisters including me.  Several religious affair officials, the leader of CCPA Shenzhen and parish council leader of several other Churches are among the guests during the mass and dinner at the nearby restaurant.   The procession began from Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto down stair.

Fr. Lu taught the parishioners to sing “有一件礼物”(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbOuGc7hS3U) while waiting the Mass to begin.  He and the choir sang “Holy Family” after the Mass. 

There were 4 couples renewed their marriage vows.  Ms. Sun helped the ceremony preparation, Ms. Huang took care the preparation for the offering, Mr. Cai designed the gift.  I helped Mr. Cai in preparing the we chat page about the Holy Family Feast Day celebration https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s?__biz=MjM5MjEyNTA0Mw==&mid=2650650028&idx=2&sn=936797092140393f87c58d7a30d59fab&chksm=bea20cb089d585a6e16e601986ac5674502af1efc8b1aa06e960172218f97ecd080d4f59efbd&mpshare=1&scene=1&srcid=1227XHbH85YPPo9gfFErD1Vc&from=groupmessage&ascene=1&devicetype=android-24&version=2607033d&nettype=WIFI&abtest_cookie=BQABAAoACwASABMAFAAFACOXHgBXmR4Am5keAJyZHgClmR4AAAA%3D&lang=en&pass_ticket=blM8XiMVadqFzlvjooVox8nDFdDVRXjvLbG%2FnEhDqzCB9UJRPJ7syy3SFT6M3Xq1&wx_header=1 and then forwarded to several group chatting.

There were more than 500 people attending the Mass.  The coordinator of each team in the parish council received a Holy Family statue from our parish council leader Mr. Li.

 Several parishioners and I attended the Mother of God Feast Day at Mother of God Church, Yantian-Shenzhen on January 1, 2019.  There were 12 priests, 11 sisters and around 250 people attending the Mass.  Several religious affair officials, the leader of CCPA Shenzhen and parish council leader of several other Churches are among the guests during the mass and dinner at the nearby restaurant.
