The parable put forth by Jesus remains a great challenge for all his followers. As the Body of Christ, we are called to serve the poor, the marginalised and the rejects of our modern-day society.
The Home of Peace, located some 3 kilometers from St Ann Parish, comes under the care of St Ann parish. On 20th February 2010, we began with a Mass celebrated in the Home of Peace's Chapel. The parishoners from the nearby Taman Landeh and Taman RPR Landeh came to attend the Mass and support the residents. It was a good turnout by the parishoners from the two Tamans who will have to gradually take ownership of their commitment to the Home of Peace and also respond to the challenge of Jesus' parable in the Gospel of Matthew.
Our presence as parishoners of St Ann certainly made an impact on the residents, the SSFS sisters ministering in the Home and Alvin (Administrator). The celebration of Mass at the Home of peace will soon become a regular feature where the Mass will be celebrated on the first, third, fourth and fifth Saturdays of every month.
You are invited to join us at the mass and experience the joy of serving the Lord's poor.
