South­ern Vic­ari­ate Epis­co­pal Vic­ar, Fa­ther David Khan, yes­ter­day called on parish­ioners to be­come bea­cons of hope, as he not­ed the coun­try’s lead­ers had dis­ap­point­ed cit­i­zens.

He made the call af­ter the an­nu­al Sta­tions of the Cross ob­ser­vance end­ed at the Pro-Cathe­dral of Our La­dy of Per­pet­u­al Help in San Fer­nan­do.

Call­ing the con­gre­ga­tion’s at­ten­tion to the Fifth Sta­tion, where Si­mon of Cyrene was com­pelled to car­ry Je­sus’ cross, Fa­ther Khan asked, “How of­ten do we see peo­ple in need and turn our backs, de­spite be­ing in a po­si­tion to help?”
