Every Wednesday, Divine Word University, Madang campus, holds evening Mass celebrations led by different academic departments. Recently, the Rural Health students and staff led the Mass, offering prayers for those who are sick or unwell, as well as for blessings upon their department and the University community as a whole.
The Scripture reading was taken from the Acts of the Apostles, Chapter 8, which recounts the persecution of the Church in Jerusalem and how the Church spread to the towns of Samaria. The principal celebrant, Fr Philip Gibbs, encouraged the gathered students to draw inspiration from the faith of the Samaritans and to remain open to new possibilities in their own journey of faith.
