Catholic participation in Day of Prayer

The Catholic Church in Antigua joined a national Day of Prayer on September 10 to pray for the country's peace, healing, unity, and hope.

Bishop Robert Llanos presided over a Holy Mass at the Holy Family Cathedral, which served as the central spiritual event for the observance. The Diocese of St John’s-Basseterre reported that the Mass was broadcast live on Catholic Radio and ABS Television to allow people across Antigua and other areas to participate.

Various Catholic groups contributed to the day through Catholic Radio. The Catholic Charismatic Renewal led one hour of Scripture and intercession, while Couples for Christ hosted a session regarding the role of marriage and family life in society. Catholic Radio provided continuous coverage to connect those unable to attend the Cathedral in person.
