In a time marked by fear, uncertainty and isolation, Archbishop Fr Charles Jason Gordon delivered a sermon of hope on Christmas morning, urging TT to look forward to brighter days ahead despite the current darkness. However, he acknowledged that recent changes have impacted this Christmas season more than ever before.

“It’s different because we’re lying in a high sense of anxiety right now….plenty people in this country right now just don’t have what it takes to even put something on the table today. The stream of people who used to be able to support themselves and organise their lives and now cannot, is overwhelming. That’s different.”

This has been felt nationwide.
