To co-incide with the celebration, the Bishop of Hualien was invited to officiate the Mass and to give the Sacrament of Confirmation to 22 parishioners. He was very much delighted by the energy of the parishioners. It was a moment for the bishop to know and be in touch his flock in Dawu.
The parishioners themselves prepared their aboriginal food and presented some very traditional aboriginal dances. The people from Xin Hua Chapel made the biggst impact by leading the people with their presentation of "prayer of thanksgiving of the paiwan tribe".
