Ongoing Renewal Experience for Filipino Migrants in Macau

More than 100 Filipinos working in Macau gathered the last Sunday of March for a whole day seminar. It is called: CREM - Catholic Renewal Experience for Migrants.

There are about 13,000 Filipinos working in Macau. During this time of financial crisis many lost their job. The life of a migrant could be very lonely and difficult. The Catholic Pastoral Center gathers them every month for an experience of togetherness centered on the Word of God.

Participants are invited to renew their faith and become active in different ministries. Every month the group increases. Community building and fellowship is encouraged and a follow up program is developing.

The Center published a monthly newsletter in full color: Magkalakbay (Co-Journeyer). It reaches already to more than 2000 Filipinos in Macau. You can browse it below... The newsletter is prepared with the help of Ian and Divine, the co-workers in our Macau office.
