Throwback to 2020

2020 was no ordinary year.

By early 2020, people all over the world were forced to contend with a new normal: lockdowns, mask rules, physical distancing, SOPs, economic crises and travel bans. Families were separated. Many fell ill with Covid-19 or lost loved ones because of it. Many lost their jobs.

But even with the pandemic as a backdrop, life went on. It was no different for our parish as we had to temporarily suspend our activities, and find new ways of reaching out to our congregation, and the most vulnerable. 

We as a parish, never conceded. Focused on Christ, the video below compiles the programs throughout the challenging year of 2020 and how collectively as a community of believers, we continued to bring God’s message of hope, joy and love to others.

A special appreciation goes out to all who made it possible, especially Fr Dominic, parish leaders, volunteers and all those who supported and participated.
