Encounter Youth Night Sat 22 Feb 7pm Register: http://tinyurl.com/CSMYouthNightFeb2025 The Art of Silence Wed 12 March 8pm St Michael Room Silence is more than the absence of sound—it is a doorway to God’s presence. In a world filled with distractions, we rarely take the time to pause, be still, and listen. What if the answers [...]

Faith, Healing, and God’s Guidance

A Mother and Daughter's Journey In life’s most difficult moments, one often feels lost and hopeless. Yet, God's voice can still be heard, guiding, comforting, and leading us toward healing. For May and her mother Mdm Lim, their extraordinary journey is a powerful blend of personal encounters with the Holy Spirit, divine prompting, and scriptural encouragement, a story of transformation [...]

It was meant to happen? What!

My late husband Mike always had a Plan A and a Plan B. After all we know this adage “Fail to Plan. Plan to Fail.” Perhaps what should be in the back of our minds, or actually the front, is our belief that God has a plan for each of us. I don’t understand how God does it, but hindsight [...]

Are you just another brick in the wall?

My generation of rebels who grew up with rock band Pink Floyd (“The Wall”) will recall their lyrics of angst against abuse and how bricks were a metaphor for one’s painful experiences, of having to conform to society. We don't need no education We don't need no thought control… Those experiencing dark days, then and now, could well identify with [...]

Goodness Gracious! A Eureka Moment!

Have you had an epiphany before? That sudden moment of insight or realization – when something clicks and everything makes sense somehow. I would like to think that the Magi—commonly known as the Wise Men or Kings—had an exciting OMG moment too when they saw a new star in the sky, an extraordinary event that connected the dots. They might [...]

Quiet Me With Your Love

QUIET ME WITH YOUR LOVE (Inspired by Zephaniah 3: 17) Like a mother’s breast To her nursing child, Quiet me with Your Love, So tender and so mild. Like a lover’s kiss, Sweeter than wine is, The taste of perfect peace Which only You could give. Quiet me with Your Love. A Mighty King Riding on a strong white steed, [...]

Christmas Octave: A Symphony of Joy

Octave? Octavius? I vaguely remember the name Octavius from Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar and my piano-playing days too lie in the dust but I know an octave is eight notes (I did pass some music theory exams! Do-ray-me-far-so-lah-ti-do!)   But what exactly are Octave Days? Let’s break it down. Christmas is too huge to squeeze into a single day. We’re not [...]

Liturgical Reflection for 3rd Sunday of Advent

The reading of this weekend invites us to dwell in the joy of the expected coming of our Saviour. The expected coming is very near as when John the Baptist preached the people were so moved that they thought the Messiah was coming soon. We rejoice a little bit as we are aware that we are soon going to celebrate [...]
