MANILA, Philippines — The Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) launched a mobile app on Wednesday, the birthday of the Blessed Virgin Mary, to inspire “unchurched” people to attend the Mass and other activities.

The FaithWatch app was launched to engage Catholics who are active on social media to attend online Masses, read the Gospel, engage in church news, and watch videos about Catholic life virtually.

“But that aside, it wishes to reach out to the ‘unchurched’ populating social media through vlogs and other contents produced and formatted with ‘Missio ad gentes’ in mind,” Msgr. Pedro Quitorio III, CBCP Media Office director, said in a statement.
