Diocese of Cubao parishes reopens Saturday, July 11
The Diocese of Cubao has received permission from the Quezon City government to resume public Masses starting July 11, 2020, under the General Community Quarantine (GCQ) guidelines.
Bishop Honesto Ongtioco announced the development, noting that the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) allows 10 percent venue attendance for religious activities.
He expressed that this move is welcomed by many members of the faithful who have been eager to participate in Eucharistic celebrations once more.
However, Bishop Ongtioco emphasized that the decision to reopen churches will be left to the discretion of individual parish priests.
This is due to the rising number of COVID-19 cases in some areas of Metro Manila, necessitating careful assessment of readiness and safety by each parish.
