29th August 2010

Since I became the Parish Priest in April last year, we have had only one PPC meeting. This was held on 7th June last year where I presented the PPC exco approved Parish Goal and four dimensions (see back of bulletin). Two weeks later, I presented these at all our weekend Masses and a 17 page booklet was distributed for your perusal.

The time has come for us to have a Parish Assembly as we have had 17 months to settle-in. This year we will have it on Sunday, 10th October. The main agenda item would be to elect new members to the PPC exco to take over from those members who will have to retire in accordance with our Constitution.

Our Parish needs to continue to "Grow in God's Love and Ways." Each of us has to help shape our Parish.

So, I would like you to take a copy of the self-explanatory nomination form (at the Place of Gathering), read it carefully and seriously consider someone you know who can be an effective member of our Parish exco.

I also urge you strongly to make the effort to join in our first Jubilee celebration programme of the Mass and Vigil Prayers, this coming Friday 3rd September from 8.00 pm to midnight. For logistic purposes, while ministry members are to sit at their designated places, non-ministry members are welcome to sit any where in the Church.

Let us each play our part in helping our Parish "Grow in God's Love and Ways." God bless.  

God bless.

Yours in Christ,

Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
