At the Chapel of San Juan Bautista in Manchay, a group of adolescents received the Sacrament of Confirmation on Sunday, 14 December 2025. These young people had completed their preparation in four chapels out of the 55 chapels within the Parish of Manchay. SDC members of the Lurin assisted with the sacramental preparation at the Chapel of Santo Domingo de la Calzada Señor de los Milagros. In addition to the adolescents, a number of adults also received the Sacrament of Confirmation.
The Sacrament of Confirmation was administered by Mons. Amadeo Raymi Mendoza, Vicar of the Diocese of Lurin.
In his address, the Parish Priest of Manchay, Fr Fernando Apfata Chaco, emphasised that the parish’s continued growth in the number of Catholic faithful is a clear sign of the need for more missionaries to proclaim the Good News.
Let us give thanks to God for all the good work being carried out in the Parish of Manchay.
