The Dioceses of Parañaque and Pasig have suspended public masses for two weeks, from August 3-4 to August 14, to support frontliners amid a surge in COVID-19 cases.

Parañaque Bishop Jesse Mercado stated the suspension is a show of solidarity with healthcare workers, with masses to be live-streamed online.

Pasig Bishop Mylo Vergara issued the same directive, citing compliance with the government's reversion to modified enhanced community quarantine (MECQ).

He added that this is a proactive response to be in solidarity with the government and medical frontliners.
