To: All Laiko Members: Arch/Diocesan Councils of the Laity & National Lay Organizations
Dear Brothers & Sisters:
The peace and love of the merciful Lord be with you!
The Sangguniang Laiko ng Pilipinas will once again celebrate the National Laity Week on September 18 to 25, 2021. Despite the present situation, we believe all the more that we have to highlight the indispensable role of the laity in the life and mission of the Church in the most feasible ways.
This year’s theme is: “Celebrate as One in 2021 – the Gift of Christianity, The Gift of Mission and the Gift of Unity”
The Opening Celebration on September 18, 2021 will be hosted by the Archdiocese of Cebu, while the Closing Event on September 25, 2021 is to be hosted by the Diocese of Baguio.
As in the past, we encourage you, in coordination with your Bishops, Priests & superiors to organize Laity Week related activities in your respective Arch/Dioceses, parishes and communities.
We will update you on the details of the Opening and Closing Ceremonies once they are finalized so that you can actively participate.
Thank you. Once again, we count on your utmost support and active participation.
Sincerely in the service of the Lord,
Noted by:
+MOST REV. BRODERICK S. PABILLO, D.D.
Chairman
CBCP Episcopal Commission on the Laity
