Faith tolerance 信仰的包容

Fr. Lucas Ng paying respect to the deceased
黄神父向亡者致敬

Christopher Lim died on 26 March last year.

Three days ago, his mother Veronica died at the aged of 88. Taoist funeral rite was conducted according to the wishes of family and tradition even though Madam Veronica was baptised years ago.

A Mass was celebrated this morning at the residence by Fr. Lucas Ng attended by many Catholics and non-Catholic members of family.

A scene of religious harmony, faith tolerance and communion of saints!


林明弟兄在去年三月二十六日逝世。

三天前,他的母亲陈娇女士蒙主恩召,享年88岁。依据非教徒家人的意愿及传统,殡葬礼仪是以道教礼进行。

今早,黄天赐神父在亡者家举行了一台弥撒,教友及非教徒家庭成员也出席参与。

宗教和谐,信仰的包容及诸圣的相通都在这刻体现了!

很好,不坚持旧能带来和谐。但肯定也有唱反调的,对吗?

谢谢老大报导这则新闻,解读了许多外教人士对天主教信仰的认识,赞美主。

是的,接受及包容是和谐的最佳方程式。
