Dorothea held a Seminar on ‘The Lenten Days – Sacret Tri Duum and Its Décor’

On last January 29th, 2013 Dorothea, a community forum for florists of Bandung diocese, held a seminar with a theme of ‘The Lenten Days – Sacret Tri Duum and Its Décor’. Most of Margriet members were attended, not only because Margriet is one of the members of Dorothea but also because it was held at St. Peter Cathedral church, the headquarter of Margriet which means Margriet was the host of this seminar. 


Totally 120 persons filled the hall of St. Peter Cathedral church, they’re the representatives of the parish churches in Bandung diocese (for information, there are 23 churches in Bandung) as well as in West Java such as from Garut,  Tasikmalaya, Purwakarta  etc.


The seminar began at 9.15 am, and it was given by Mr. Agung Nugroho, formerly the head of liturgy of St. Peter Cathedral Bandung. According to the theme, he talked about liturgy a glance and more about its decor, the color and symbol. He also asked what he was saying was not to be debated but just to add or complement to what the participants had already known.

Time passed fast, and before ending his lecture, he still provided time for the participants to ask questions and they didn't waste this chance. Lot questions from the participants were indicating that the seminar was interesting and long-awaited.

Hopefully this seminar can increase their knowledge about the pre-Easter season and be more confident in church decor and finally upon their returning further improve their services in their respective churches.

Pastor Leo van Beurden, the head of the parish of Cathedral St. Peter Bandung took time to greet all the participants attended in the hall.


The seminar finished at 11.30, and before going home to their respective regions, the participants had lunch together. The queue was quite long.


And what is the menu? It’s a 'Lontong cap go meh'. It consists of rice cakes, shredded chicken, egg, spicy chili-gourd-chicken liver poured with coconut sauce and a bit of soy-garlic powder on top, hmm.... yummy!
