In an interview on Saturday, October 15, 2022, Labajo said even before the CBCP issued the circular encouraging members of the Catholic church to come out and attend mass inside churches, Archbishop Jose Palma was already reminding the faithful to do the same. “So, ako I would like to support and totally, I agree with the statement of the CBCP in encouraging everyone to attend the mass physically and receiving Communion g’yod with the physical presence sa mga mosimba,” he added.Labajo reiterated that attending mass virtually cannot compare to the experience of actually receiving the word and sacrament of Communion in person.
The Archdiocese of Cebu, in a social media post, announced earlier that the live streaming of masses in parishes will continue for those who cannot be physically present at the church for various reasons, such as old age, health issues, and physical disabilities.
