Hi Pat,
I'm Fr. Christopher W. S. from Sacred Heart Church, Jalan Peel. I wish to say thank you for updating things on the facebook and tell you the truth I'm still learning about it. Thank you and wish to say continue your good works.

By the way I'm also the Vocation Director for the Archdiocese and as you already know, we need more priest and religious. Therefore, need your help to inform the public on the Vocations drive of the Archdiocese Vocation Promotion team. Thank you and Take care.

Chris

Indeed our prayers for Christian Unity Week all these years have been answered by our Lord - the Good Shepherd in His time.

PS: Bro Greg, thanks for posting a note on St Thomas Aquinas. I was amused by the fact that just as we were entering the Lunar New Year (and year of the Ox), we were also celebrating the feast day of this saint popularly known as the Dumb Ox! ;-)
