BREAKING NEWS!
Earlier today (May 5) the CFC Timor Leste Mission Team headed by Anthony and Tina Rodriguez, and composed of young Family Ministries missionaries Karen dela Cerna, Aleixo do Rosario Pereira, Joaquina da Costa, CFC missionary Francisco da Costa and missionary kids Tim and Rysse Rodriguez, were blessed to meet up with Rev. Fr. Jose Tacain, SVD, the newly-assigned Head of the Dili Diocese Family Commission. CFC TL had previously collaborated with Fr. Jose for the launching of CFC's Pro-Life Month in July of last year.
This afternoon's meeting was held upon Fr. Jose's request for CFC to become an integral part of the newly revamped and "re-activated" Family Life Commission of the Dili Diocese, which had previously been lacking a priest to head it. During the meeting, Fr. Jose acknowledged the "good work" that CFC and its Family Ministries is doing for the Catholics of Timor Leste, especially by encouraging families and youth to be active in their parishes. He exhorted the Mission Team to continue the work and also requested that a representative from CFC be selected to join him in the Commission. This is to ensure the smooth coordination and implementation of all activities under the Family Commission that CFC can be a support to. Fr. Jose also hopes that CFC will become a program adopted by all parishes in the Diocese of Dili.
The almost 2-hour long meeting ended with Fr. Jose jokingly asking the Rodriguezes to extend their mission as "the need is still great," and the assurance of the CFC Mission Team that CFC is committed to being one with the Church in all its objectives.
To God be all the glory now and forever!
Hahi ba Nai Aleluia! Praise the Lord Alleluia!
