After being under the lowest alert level since the pandemic started and amidst the low COVID-19 restrictions in the Municipality of Daet, the Diocese of Daet still chose not to have the traditional procession this upcoming Holy Week due to COVID-19.
According to Bishop Rex Andrew Alarcon there will be no mobile procession this lent season. He also added that he is aware that the church is aware that people are already excited to participate in the traditional procession this lent season, but he emphasized that the devotees need to understand that there is still a threat of the virus and practicing minimum health standard is still highly encouraged.
On the other hand, if there are parochial churches who will implement the procession, this will depend on their respective Parish Priest and approved by the Local Government Unit.
