Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic had caused disturbances in the lives of people all over the world including in church services. In this paper, I argue on the merits of returning the church services in the Philippines to cater to the Filipinos' spiritual needs, but at the same time considering their practicality and the lingering fear of death because of the pandemic. This paper further argues that the Filipinos' faith during this pandemic is tested, especially the absence or less access to communal spiritual activities.
