For the past several months the Carmelites have been celebrating Mass and the Sacraments for the people in Guisarudo, Ermera, at the request of Cardinal Virgílio Do Carmo Da Silva, Archbishop of Dili. The main church in Guisarudo has some 16 chapels located in the surrounding villages.
On 22 December 2023 Fr Aniçeto Maia Da Costa blessed a new priest’s residence built by the people of Guisarudo. The simple residence has 2 bedrooms and a dining room and complements an existing house which also has 2 bedrooms.
The Carmelites will continue to celebrate Mass and the Sacraments at Guisarudo throughout 2024.
