As another year comes, another Outreach Team graduates and when a team graduates there is always the welcoming of a new Outreach Team. The camp started out with a blast on the 7th of May. Registration went smoothly and without a hitch as did the loading of equipment and luggage.

After a blessing from Father Anthony Heng, we were off. The bus ride took its normal 1 hour and 30 minutes plus duration and the next time we knew we were all unloading the bus at The Farm. It seemed God...

*A gentle reminder to the working team: the dress code is RED!

    He is Risen! In this Easter season Christ is alive in you and me, and that was plainly apparent at our recent annual JYM Easter Party on the 24^th of April. There was a turnout of over a hundred youth and parents on the second floor of the SIC Constantini Community Centre from 7.30 – 10-30p.m. that Saturday night. Ask any one of them and they’d probably tell you what a great experience they had! 

The time has come for yet another annual SIC JYM Easter Party!

The gathering, which was originally on the 18^th of April, has been postponed to the 2^nd of May in lieu of the upcoming JYM Easter Party. The time (1-3pm) and place (Room 2-1) remain unchanged. Looking forward to seeing all of you there!

This month is not only full of activity for our ministry, but also for our church! Why??? Because Easter is nearly here!

So, as obliging young Catholics, its time to remember our faith, and make an effort to go for mass!  The mass times for Saint Ignatius Church are as follows:

• Good Friday :
  1.00pm – Way of the Cross followed by Liturgy of the Word (English)
  4.30pm - Liturgy of the Word (English)
  8.00pm – Liturgy of the Word (Mandrin)
• Holy Saturday:
  6.45pm – Mass in Mandrin
  10.30pm – Mass in English
• Easter Sunday:
