Missionary Families of Christ, an “evangelistic and missionary community” that aims to empower families, held a gathering Oct. 25-26 at St. Elizabeth Church in Aiea. Participants gathered for fellowship, praise and worship and a holy hour; Bishop Larry Silva celebrated Mass at the end of the second day. He was joined by Father Sebastian Soosai, pastor of St. Elizabeth; Father Arrion Rosales-Llantos, St. Elizabeth’s parochial vicar; and Deacon Fred Carahasen. (Photo by Celia K.
