2016 FIRST EVENT- PARISH CHRISTMAS/NEW YEAR PARTY


This is the first event of the New Year, held on New Year's Day! Our Parish Christmas/New Year Party with the theme "We are Family" got off with bang right after today's mass. 
This year, the party was open to the public, with friends and members from MCCBCHST(Kelantan) joining in the fun and activities. The programme included singing of carols by Kem and Campus Ministry, which also put up a 'Christmas Play', games for children and youths, adults and even the senior citizens were not left out in 'passing the parcel'. and musical chairs. 
There were also dances by the Kem and Folk dancing led by Gina Sanchez Lai which was really fun. At 12.00 noon Christmas lunch was served to the hungry guests. All in all, it was a day filled with fun, songs and laughter - a truly Merry event! 
Thanks are due to the organizing committee under the leadership of Francis Lai for a well orgnaized event and to the many helpers, especially the young members of the Campus Ministry and the Youth, "Terima Kasih" Wishing all a very Happy New Year!
