Building on the spirit of our Parish Retreat @ FAST24 (previously themed “Pilgrims of Hope, Apostles for Today”) and the Jubilee Year 2025 ("Pilgrims of Hope"), the Parish Pilgrimage Retreat invites our parish community to journey deeper — to reflect, reconnect, and grow as Pilgrims In Hope.
🗓️ Date: Saturday, 28 June 2025
🕙 Time: 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
📍 Location: Schoenstatt Shrine, 9 Talus Drive, Mt Richon
💰 Cost: FREE (Donations welcome)
👨👩👧👦 Open to: All parishioners, family & friends.
✨ Whether or not you attended FAST24 this year, you are warmly invited to take part in the Parish Pilgrimage Retreat. You are invited to deepen your faith, connect with other Catholics, to rediscover the joy of walking this journey of Hope together. Come along for a day of prayer, fellowship, and spiritual renewal.
