At the Feet of the Good Shepherd Retreat (FGS)
29 – 30 June
St Francis Xavier Centre, Punggol

As leaders, we may be so used to tending to those under our care that we may not look into our own spiritual and emotional well-being. Might we have any childhood trauma or past hurt that continues to affect our behaviour today and result in wounding those we lead?

At this  2-day 1-night (2D1N) weekend stay-in retreat, you will spend time with Jesus in personal prayer, contemplating the Word of God, and guided Sacrament of Reconciliation.  You will also meet with a Spiritual Director one-to-one to guide you in your personal prayer.

A Day of Recollection: Peace of Mind
Monday, 1 July 2024

Montfort Centre, 624 Upper Bukit Timah Rd

Calling All Educators:

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. (John 14:27)

Peace, more often than not, lives underneath the turmoils and anxieties of our hearts. With the bombardment of social media, we are exposed to more information than we can absorb and more distressing news than we can process. Not letting our hearts be troubled and not being afraid seems to be just impossible. However, Jesus’ prayer for us is not that we be taken out of this anxious world but that we may be protected from all anxiety (cf. John 17:15). How then might we as Christians, remain centred in Christ in the midst of an anxious world?

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Our Archdiocese has been working to build a more vibrant, evangelising and missionary Church. In sharing the Good News, we are bringing the hope and love of Christ to vast numbers of people.

Within our Church today, however, there are currently no premises large enough for our organisations and communities to hold their activities on a large scale. After much study, we concluded that the Church’s largest freehold site at 49 Upper Thomson Road could optimally be used to house major Archdiocesan organisations, a convention centre with overnight retreat facilities, a home for senior clergy – and more – for the long-term needs of the Church.

Beyond physical infrastructure, such a Catholic Hub can bring about a greater depth of communion. The facilities and organisations located there will enable collaboration for a more effective witnessing of the Gospel to the people of Singapore and reap economies of scale.
