Many Catholics know someone who has drifted away from the Church, or who moves from parish to parish without ever really finding a place where they belong. Others continue to attend Mass but remain on the edge of parish life, unsure where they fit or how they can become more involved.
Returning to the Church is rarely a simple decision. For many people, it is a journey shaped by questions, disappointment, hurt, uncertainty or simply the passing of time. Often, what they need most is not more information, but someone who will listen without judgement and walk alongside them.
As part of our parish renewal, Our Lady Queen of Apostles Parish is establishing a new Faith Formation Ministry. Its purpose is to help people grow in their relationship with Christ through prayer, community and the shared life of the Church.
The first initiative of this ministry is Landings—a proven approach centred on welcome, listening, friendship and honest faith sharing. Rather than beginning with preaching or instruction, Landings begins by helping people recognise God's presence in their own life story and experience the welcome of the Church.
Faith formation is more than learning about our faith through talks and courses. It is about growing as disciples of Christ through relationships, shared experiences and accompanying one another in faith. In time, we hope this spirit of accompaniment will become part of the everyday life of our parish—not only by welcoming returning Catholics, but by helping all parishioners become more attentive to one another's faith journey.
From 20–22 August 2026, we are pleased to welcome Tony See, Landings Coordinator for Southeast Asia, who will be visiting our parish to lead a series of introductory sessions.
Tony has been involved with Landings since it was introduced in Singapore in 2008 and has helped many parishes throughout Southeast Asia establish this proven approach to accompanying returning Catholics.
During these sessions, participants will explore:
why many Catholics drift away from the Church
the experiences and challenges that often accompany their journey home
how Landings helps people encounter God's welcome through listening, faith sharing and accompaniment
how this first initiative will support the development of our new Faith Formation Ministry.
Whether you know someone who may one day return to the Church, would like to learn more about this new ministry, or simply want to help our parish become a place where people experience God's welcome, you are warmly invited to attend.
Attendance is free of charge, although registration is appreciated.
The introductory sessions are offered on alternative days to provide greater flexibility. Please attend both Part 1 and Part 2, choosing the session times that best suit your schedule.

Healing Mass - 24 July 2026 - at Our Lady Queen of Apostles Parish
Through the Eucharist, prayer, and praise, we open our hearts to God’s healing touch — whether that’s physical healing, peace in times of worry, or strength in life’s struggles.
The evening included uplifting music, a short time of praise and worship, prayer ministry for those who wanted it, and a beautiful Mass celebrated in the spirit of openness to the Holy Spirit.
Organised by The Spiritual Renewal Ministry at Riverton Parish, together with CCR Perth.
Around 78 participants gathered at Our Lady Queen of Apostles Parish in Riverton on 6–7 March 2026 for the parish’s annual FAST24, a 24-hour Lenten experience of prayer, reflection and community.
Now in its 11th year, FAST24 invites participants to step away from the usual rhythm of life and enter into a shared journey of fasting, listening and faith conversation.
This year’s theme, “Always Returning, Always Becoming,” reflected the Christian understanding that faith is a lifelong process of continually returning to God and allowing Him to shape one’s life.
The event brought together speakers from both overseas and Australia who shared personal stories of faith, struggle and renewal.
Among them was Gregory Tan from Singapore, who spoke about rediscovering faith after the loss of his wife to cancer and now serves in the Landings Ministry, which helps people reconnect with the Church.
Married couple Desi Perera and Stephanie Kee from Penang, Malaysia, shared their experiences of journeying to faith and accompanying others through Alpha and Landings ministries.
Participants also heard from Isabelle Ochtman, Faith Formation Officer with Catholic Youth Ministry Perth, who reflected on discovering faith during her youth and now helping others explore their own spiritual journeys.
Another speaker was Philip Boon, a chaplain in the Archdiocese of Perth’s Prison Ministry, who spoke about accompanying people who often feel forgotten or judged by society.
The programme began on Friday evening with a simple shared meal, followed by the Stations of the Cross and a keynote reflection by parish priest Fr Paul Manickathan SAC.
Throughout Saturday, participants took part in talks, prayer, small-group conversations, creative activities and a period of Eucharistic Adoration and Reconciliation.
A new feature this year was the Emmaus Table session, facilitated by Mark Brolly, President of the Union of Catholic Apostolate, who travelled from Melbourne to lead a reflective dialogue among participants and speakers.
The 24-hour fast concluded with the Saturday evening Vigil Mass, where participants wore white FAST24 T-shirts they had designed earlier in the day as a reminder of their baptismal calling.
Following Mass, the community gathered again in the parish hall to share a meal and celebrate the completion of the fast together.
For many participants, FAST24 offered a meaningful opportunity during Lent to reflect on their relationship with God and to accompany one another in the shared journey of faith.
The 11th FAST24 took place at Our Lady Queen of Apostles Parish, Riverton, from 6–7 March 2026, with the theme “Always Returning, Always Becoming.”
Around 78 participants gathered for 24 hours of fasting, prayer, reflection and fellowship during Lent — the highest participation since the pandemic. We were blessed with inspiring speakers from Singapore, Malaysia and Perth, including Gregory Tan, Desi Perera and Stephanie Kee, Isabelle Ochtman, and Philip Boon, who shared honest stories of faith, struggle and returning to God.
FAST24 began on Friday evening with a simple shared meal prepared by parish volunteers, followed by the Stations of the Cross and a keynote reflection by Fr Paul Manickathan SAC. Gregory Tan’s deeply moving testimony of grief, faith and rediscovering God touched many hearts.
Saturday included talks, prayer, creative activities and conversations about faith. A highlight was the Emmaus Table session facilitated by Mark Brolly, which invited participants and speakers to listen and reflect together.
The fast concluded at the Saturday 6pm Vigil Mass, where participants wore the white FAST24 T-shirts they had designed earlier in the day — a reminder of our baptismal calling. Afterwards, everyone gathered again in the parish hall to break the fast together in celebration.
For many of us, FAST24 was a powerful reminder that the journey of faith is ongoing — we keep returning to God, and He continues forming us into who we are meant to become.
