The 110th World Day of Migrants 2024 is being celebrated this year on 29 September, where we honour migrants worldwide for their contributions, talents and sacrifices.

ACMI (The Archdiocesan Commission for the Pastoral Care of Migrants & Itinerant People) has provided a toolkit of resources for parishes, ministries, and communities in the Church to find ways to celebrate the migrants around us. This is available for download in 4 languages at: https://acmi.org.sg/acmi-migrant-sunday-toolkit-2024/.

There will be a Corpus Christi procession on Sunday, 2 June after the 5pm Mass, followed by the Commissioning of Communion Ministers. Hence, the 7pm Mass will be cancelled on that day.

There will be a special Commissioning Service on Fri 24 May at 7pm, to affirm and recognise all who have dedicated their time to the Ministry of Hospitality across different ministries. Hence, there will be NO 6.30pm Mass on this day.

Let us keep them in our prayers that their love for Christ may deepen as they pledge their commitment to serving Him through this hospitality ministry.
