For many, faith is an extremely important part of life and even more so in times of
crisis.

A moving sermon, celebratory service, community prayers and even coming together at
a church bazaar can provide inspiration and comfort when the world is filled with
anxiety and uncertainty.


With the nationwide lockdown still in place (albeit on level 4) and places of worship
closed, religious groups about the city — and the world — have been forced to find
innovative ways to keep faith alive at a time when social distancing, quarantine and
staying at home is the new reality.


From pre-recorded videos, social media live streams and more, some have had to
befriend technology, while others have relied on discipline and daily practices.
