“…Even in the midst of lockdown, Catholic Filipinos have found ways in expressing their unity and togetherness in professing their faith—attending online masses; listening to faith conferences; reciting some devotional prayers online and even at home. 5 The pandemic did not break the faith of Filipino Christians but instead it rejuvenates it all the more. The faith of Filipino Catholics has given them reason to hope for a better tomorrow and maintain their purpose in life.…”

The Filipino people are known for their strong religious faith. Even in the midst of the most trying moments of their collective history their faith remains steadfast. The isolation brought by the COVID-19 pandemic did not stop the Filipino Catholic faithful from expressing their faith but made it stronger. Allowed by the government to attend Church celebrations, the Filipino Catholic devotee flocked in the Quiapo Church just to attend the feast of the Black Nazarene and had a chance to hold its image with a firm conviction that the grace of God could protect them from the pandemic. However, the local medical experts called their devotion, in this time of crisis, as a ‘superspreader’, a sign not of hope but of despair.

“…These activities can be done even using many online platforms such as worship services and liturgies to augment the spiritual needs of the healthcare professionals. 9 After all, they are wounded healers who also need spiritual care. They, too, deserve to be prayed for, to be given spiritual accompaniment, and most especially be given importance because of their selfless dedication and service in this time of pandemic as a public health crisis.…”

In recent correspondences and articles published, the role of religious and spiritual interventions has been discussed for the attention of the medical community in the time of COVID-19 pandemic and part of these interventions is to provide spiritual care. Attention has been given to provide spiritual care among COVID-19 patients. However, there is also a dire need to offer spiritual care towards healthcare professionals because they, too, are ‘wounded healers’. This paper discusses the urgent call for the medical and spiritual communities to come up with comprehensive spiritual care programme for healthcare professionals so that they may attain spiritual well-being as they serve in the frontlines, risking their lives and providing spiritual care to patients especially in this trying times of the pandemic as a public health crisis.

“…To observe physical distancing and follow strict lockdowns, religious activities during the COVID-19 pandemic were done virtually. In the Philippines, upon imposition of the quarantine measures, subsequent instructions for local dioceses and parishes were given by the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) to hold Masses virtually so the faithful could still fulfill their spiritual needs (Corpuz & Sarmiento, 2021). Even for the Holy Week celebration, the faithful are asked to stay at home and attend religious activities online so that the believers will be safe from transmitting the virus (Gozum, Nucum, & Noriega, 2021).…”

“…Because the churchgoers will be staying at home, parents have larger roles to play in becoming active during the pandemic by having a house church through attending online liturgical activities (Corpuz & Sarmiento, 2021). Since the pandemic prompted different individuals to change the way the Church administers Her sacraments, the use of social media has been promoted so that the faithful can be reached.…”

This qualitative research paper proposes that the Catholic Church can maximize social media for evangelization and religious activities during the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, the social media platform can be used in the future, even after the pandemic, so that the Good News can reach more people. In the first part, we discuss the changes done by the Church in Her practices during the COVID-19 pandemic. Second, a discussion on evangelization is given so that an understanding of the concept will be achieved. Third, we highlight the need to maximize social media so that the Gospel message will be heard by more people. Thus, this paper emphasizes utilizing social media for a common good.
