You never truly realise how much sweat, blood and effort goes into preparing a place until you actually ‘turun padang’ for the St Jude’s gotong-royong. It was more than just sweeping, scrubbing and clearing the church and its compound. It was about the teamwork and little sacrifices that went into preparing our church for the Feast of St Jude. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came, contributed their time and effort, and helped make our church and its surroundings clean, welcoming and ready for this special celebration.
The haze has been lingering, and unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be getting any better. It’s time we pay closer attention to our health and take the necessary precautions to protect ourselves and our loved ones. Here are some important parish updates for your attention. Please take note of the following arrangements and continue to prioritise your health and safety.
We are proud to celebrate and congratulate our young parishioners who have been recognised with the Dominic Vendargon Award 2025! This award honours students who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement, together with a genuine commitment to participating actively in the life of our parish. Their achievements remind us that excellence is not measured only by examination results, but also by how we use our gifts, talents and time to serve God and our community. Congratulations to our award recipients! ————————————————— My aspiration is to become a successful chef while living a happy and fulfilling life.
