Filipino parishioners from various Catholic churches in Hong Kong gathered for the Simbayanan-KAMMPI Sportfest 2019 held at the YMCA Wu Kai Sha in Ma On Shan in New Territories on Feb. 6

The event marked the 19th year that the fun games were held among Filipino migrant workers who mostly spend their only day off in the week doing volunteer work for the church.

As in years past, a mass concelebrated by three priests, Frs Jun Jacobe, William Ming and Jyothi Manohar, was held before the start of the Sportsfest.

Sr. Felicitas Nisperos and Sr Corazon Demetillo, RGS, past and current head of the Diocesan Pastoral Centre for Filipinos, led the festivities.

Declared overall champion of the day-long league was the St Thomas the Apostle English Community.
