LIGHT OF JESUS PASTORAL CARE
Bringing Hope and Healing– One Conversation at a Time

IN celebration of World Mental Health Day on October 2025, our Light of Jesus Pastoral Care family gathered for significant connection, awakening reflection, and loving healing.

These moments remind us that no one is ever truly alone — that help, hope, and love are always within reach.

As part of this mission, we’re thrilled to announce the launch of The Feast Pastoral Care Advocates! Each Feast Mega Manila District will now have a dedicated team of caring advocates ready to offer psycho-spiritual support to anyone in need.

Here they are — our amazing Feast Pastoral Care Advocates. Each one ready to bring hope, healing, and heart to every conversation. Because sometimes, all we need is someone to listen.

How Healing Begins

Dr. Ichel Santos Alignay, LOJ Pastoral Care director succinctly and sincerely points out: “Healing begins when we choose to be present — with God, with others, and with ourselves.”

Whether you reach out through Messenger chat or speak with someone at your Feast gathering, know that a compassionate ear and a prayerful heart are waiting for you.

Sometimes, healing begins with a simple conversation — and our Advocates are here to walk with you every step of the way.

Let’s continue to nurture a community where openness, empathy, and faith create safe spaces for everyone to grow and heal together.

Tara,usap tayo! Because sometimes, the best way to care for others is to start by caring for ourselves.

Established in the early 1990s, the LOJ Pastoral Care provides psycho-spiritual support through virtual sessions (audio calls or live chat) for individuals seeking help and prayers.

If LOJ Pastoral Care has blessed you, be a blessing to our ministry by donating through our BDO and GCash accounts.

We truly appreciate you for continuing the cycle of kindness and generosity.

God return your generosity a hundredfold as He promised faithful givers!
