PENTECOST CELEBRATION

As the Dawu Parish celebrate their 50 years, the Pentecost Sunday was extra special. Twenty-five(25) couples who are married in the church for more than 25 years, renewed their marriage vows.

Bishop Zhen presided the celebration while Fr. John Wang concelebrated. The 25 couples were all happy to experience once again how to be wed in the church.

After the Mass, people enjoyed the food bazaar and the low-priced goods at the garage sale. The proceeds of the food bazaar and garage sale all went to the 50 year celebration and renovation of the church.

Raffle draws were held. Prizes were so many like bicycles, washing machines, tv sets and other expensive things.

It was a day to remember and will always be a big part of the history of the parish!

NOVENA TO THE HOLY SPIRIT

Last May 18-26, Dawu Parish held a novena Masses in preparation for the Pentecost. Each 9 chapels has a novena Mass. Almost 100 or more persons attended the Mass each night. Since the parish is celebrating its 50 years, the main topic for this year is "The Role of the Holy Spirit in the History of the Chapel". It was an opportunity to research their own history and share to others their stories.

During the Mass, a person shared the history and a video/picture presentations were presented. Thanks for the old parishioners who shared their old pictures for everybody to see.
