In a demonstration of national solidarity, the Catholic Church in Antigua joined communities across the country yesterday, September 10, 2026, for a united Day of Prayer. The observance provided a dedicated space for worship, reflection, and intercession for the nation and its citizens.
Catholic Church Unites Prayer
At the heart of the Church’s involvement was the celebration of Holy Mass at the Holy Family Cathedral, presided over by Bishop Robert Llanos. This gathering offered a central spiritual anchor for the national event and was broadcast live via ABS Television and Catholic Radio, ensuring that the faithful across Antigua and beyond could participate. Through the Eucharist, the Church sought divine guidance for the country, offering specific prayers for peace, healing, unity, and renewed hope.
The spirit of the day extended further through the contributions of various Catholic movements. On Catholic Radio, the Catholic Charismatic Renewal led an hour of scripture and intercession, while Couples for Christ hosted a session focused on the vital role of marriage and family life in fostering a healthy society. These diverse contributions highlighted the breadth of the Church’s spiritual life, all unified by a common focus on the nation’s welfare.
Catholic Radio served as a vital link throughout the day, fostering a sense of community for those unable to attend the Cathedral in person. For the Catholic faithful, the Day of Prayer was more than a singular religious event; it served as a call to maintain a continuous prayerful presence for the nation and its future.
The Church reaffirms its commitment to praying for Antigua and Barbuda, especially for integrity in leadership, stronger families, and the well-being of all residents. Yesterday’s observance reflected the Church’s ongoing mission to support the national community through both active service and the persistent power of faith and hope.
