MIGRANTS’ SUNDAY IN MACAO

On January 16, 2011 the Church celebrated throughout the world World Day of Migrants and Refugees. In Macau, the local Church celebrated Migrants’ Day with a concelebrated Mass, a fellowship lunch and a cultural program. There are at present about twelve thousand migrants, the majority of which are Filipinos.

Celebrated at the famous Church of Saint Augustine, the Eucharist was presided by the bishop of Macao, Msgr. José Lai and concelebrated by about fifteen secular and religious priests – most of them missionaries in Macau. The Mass was attended by nearly one thousand people – most of them migrants living in Macau. It was animated by a lively and joyful choir of Filipino migrants. The Dominican students of St. Dominic’s Priory served at the Mass.

Bishop Lai spoke warmly and gratefully of the migrants in Macau (no refugees here at present).  He developed briefly the theme of this year’s celebration, “One sole human family,” and underlined some points from the message of Pope Benedict XVI for the occasion. Two other highlights of the Eucharistic celebration were the petitions – 15 in all – in different languages and the offerings of miniature flags by 14 migrants, each one representing his/her own country.

The fellowship lunch was also well-attended: nearly a thousand people ate different kinds of excellent food. The atmosphere was pleasant, familiar and serene. There was more than enough food for all.

Twenty four numbers, including messages, dances and songs made up the cultural program. A wide variety of different cultural expressions were expertly presented by groups or soloists of migrants representing their respective country, such as the Philippines, India, Spain, Indonesia, China, Korea, Macau, etc. The friendly audience applauded loudly and gladly each presentation. The whole cultural program showed well that the differences in culture do not separate but enrich us and therefore bond us more deeply. In fact, the various verbal and visual messages spoke clearly of one theme, namely unity as a loving family: “We are one family,” “we are the world,” “one Bread, one Body, and one People,” one Savior: Jesus Christ!

The celebration of the “World Day of Migrants and Refugees” in Macau is indeed a day to remember. We congratulate wholeheartedly and thank deeply bishop Lai, the Catholic Pastoral Center of the Diocese, and the Filipino Migrant Ministry. We close with the words of Pope Benedict XVI for this Migrants’ Day: One family of brothers and sisters urged to take part in dialogue, so that a serene and fruitful coexistence with respect for legitimate differences may be found.

NEW MASTER OF STUDENTS


Fr. Jarvis Sy Hao, OP, is the new Master of Students in the Province’s Studentate in Macau. He takes the place of Fr. Lucio Gutierrez, OP. After consulting the Council of the Province, Fr. Javier Gonzalez, OP, Prior Provincial, appointed Fr Jarvis as Master of  students he was appointed January 8, 2011.

Fr Jarvis is the Socius of the Fr. Provincial. He was born in Manila, where he entered the Dominican missionary Province of Our Lady of the Rosary. He studied his philosophy at the University of Santo Tomas, Manila. He studied the first years of his theological institutional courses at “San Pedro Martir” in Madrid, Spain, and finished them at the University of Santo Tomas. He has a licentiate and a master’s degree in philosophy, and a bachelor’s degree in theology from the UST Ecclesiastical Faculties. Fr. Jarvis was ordained a priest in Manila on April 13, 1991. He worked in Taiwan and has taught philosophy and theology courses in different centers of studies and religious institutes in the Asia Pacific region. The 47 years old dynamic Dominican is a much sought-after speaker and retreat master. He represents a most welcomed addition to our Priory and, of course, Studentate.

Fr. Lucio Gutierrez, OP, was the Master of Students from October 2009 to December 2010. Due to a grave and debilitating illness, Fr. Lucio was transferred to Manila on September 17, 2010, and confined first at the Hospital of the University of Santo Tomas and later at St. Martin de Porres Hospital, where he still is. Since last December he is assigned to our Convent of the “Santa Cruz” in San Juan City, Metro-Manila. St. Dominic’s Priory is most grateful to Fr. Lucio, a distinguished historian, dedicated Dominican – man of God.

We welcome wholeheartedly Fr. Jarvis.
