Rejoicing, revival and renewal these themes celebrated by the worldwide church on Gaudete Sunday were especially evident at a Mass for young adults Sunday, Dec. 13 at St. James Church, Elkins Park.
The celebration was the third in a series of pilgrimage Masses sponsored by the Archdiocese of Philadelphia’s Office for Pastoral Care for Migrants and Refugees (PCMR) and coordinated by the office’s director, Assumption Sister Gertude Borres, and her enthusiastic team of PCMR young adult leaders representing multicultural Catholic communities throughout the archdiocese.
They include Williamina Lebaga, representing Cameroon; Taurean Whitfield and Imani Scutt, representing African Americans; Melissa and Yoline Scutt (Haiti); Dale Tan (Philippines) and Angela Dakyung Kim (Korea).
