    • 1. To Pray
    - In these dark times we must pray to God for those who are sick, for medical frontliners, government
    officials, for all of us, prayer is our weapon for COVID - 19 pandemic. We must attend the online
    masses with our family. Prayer is important because "Do not be anxious about anything, but in
    everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.“
    God is the one who knows what is right or wrong.
    • 2. To Help
    - In this time of crisis helping others is not only good for them and a good thing to do, it also makes us
    happier and healthier too. Giving also connects us to others, creating stronger communities and
    helping to build a happier society for everyone. And it's not all about money - we can also give our
    time, ideas and energy.
    • 3. To Obey
    - We must obey all the safety protocols or guidelines. Because it is one of the solution in this time of
    pandemic.

    comfort. May you know calm. And may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and
    the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us all. Amen.
