Dear Parishoners,
We have just concluded the Year of Faith and entered into the time of Advent. To focus ourselves in this season of preparation, our parish has announced the following to be this year’s Christmas theme:
“Christ is born – HOPE – No Matter What“
The theme’s main focus is to remind us to have hope no matter how bleak the circumstances are in our lives. All our temporary sufferings are nothing compared to what Christ’s love holds for those who are steadfast in placing their hope in the One who sent Him to be with us through the Immaculate Conception.
Please take note of the following times to ensure that you do not miss out on any of the important dates this season:
11th December 2013 (Wednesday) @ 7:30pm
Penitential Service with individual confession.
14th December 2013 (Saturday) @ 2pm to 4pm
