IN PICTURES: The Feast of St. Isidore in Grand Bay during COVID-19

Isidore in Grand Bay is the largest feast on the island and while celebrated under COVID-19 restrictions in many ways it remained just as vibrant.

The mass was held in the garage of the presbytery as the Grandbay Catholic church was badly damaged during hurricane Maria.

    Is there a fund set up for repairing this beautiful Church? Will Government offer some assistance with this?

      The answer is NO. This instrument of slavery must be allowed to die for the backwardness it has inflicted on our people. It’s very sad that that’s all WE know. People let it go, let it finally go !

    DNO Greetings…
    Is it me or it’s a greater conspiracy where media houses are remaining silent on pertinent matters? Never have I bashed you all but the Feast of St.Isidore which was a non-starter this year than the importance surrounding our Freedom, Democracy and Economic survival in Dca right now. WHY are you not reporting on the malicious detention of Mr. Gussie and the other guy from New Town? Mr Gussie was arrested since yesterday before being released today but you all are MOOMOO! Can we get an answer? 8) 8)

    Is this the present condition of the Catholic church? Is there a renovation fund that one can contribute towards repairing the church. It is unacceptable that the church would still be in that condition three years after the passage of Maria. Yes I am prepared to do my part to assist.

      No, you need to move on. Move on. Research the culture and religion of your own people that was so violently destroyed and taken from you by edicts of the deadly Vatican. All the info you need is out there. Read between the lines, you are being urged to move on.
