Facts About the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary 1. It is celebrated on September 8. The Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary commemorates the birth of Mary, the Mother of Jesus. 2. Mary’s parents are traditionally named Saints Joachim and Anne. Their names and the story of Mary’s birth come from ancient Christian tradition, particularly the Protoevangelium of James, rather than the canonical Gospels. 3. The Bible does not describe Mary’s birth. The four Gospels begin Mary’s story later, particularly with the Annunciation. Details about her childhood and birth developed through early Christian tradition. 4. The feast is very ancient. The celebration of Mary’s Nativity developed in the Christian East and was later adopted in the West. It is closely connected with the feast of the Immaculate Conception, celebrated nine months earlier on December 8. 5. Mary’s birth points toward God’s plan of salvation. Catholics celebrate her birth because Mary would become the Mother of Jesus Christ. Her Nativity prepares us to contemplate her unique role in God’s plan and her example of faith and obedience. “The Nativity of Mary is a joyful reminder that God prepares the way for His saving work through humble beginnings.” Source: Ourladyoffatima

Unity in Diversity 🇲🇾 Malaysia is a nation blessed with many cultures, languages and traditions. Our differences are not barriers that divide us, but gifts that enrich our shared life and strengthen our nation. As we celebrate Hari Merdeka, we are reminded that true unity is built through respect, understanding and a willingness to journey together. We are called to go beyond simply living alongside one another and to truly encounter, appreciate and care for each other. The Bible reminds us: “There is one body and one Spirit… one Lord, one faith, one baptism.” - Ephesians 4:4–5 Though we may be different, we are one in Christ and called to work together for the good of all. Unity in Diversity. One Nation, One People. Selamat Hari Merdeka! 🇲🇾
God’s Creation, Our Mission! Our Standard 4, 5 & 6 catechism children had a fun-filled Ecology Day Camp exploring the amazing world God has created! Through games, challenges and hands-on activities, the children discovered just how wonderful God’s creation is - and why we have an important job to care for, protect and appreciate it. From becoming little Energy Detectives, taking on Recycling Rescues, to learning about the incredible ways plants and animals survive in nature, there was plenty of learning, laughter and teamwork! They even planted some greens! Most importantly, the children discovered that caring for creation isn’t just a job for grown-ups - it starts with each one of us!
In Silence, We Hear So often the noise of life drowns out what matters most. What is truly broken is not the world around us - but our ability to be quiet long enough to listen. Listen to the quiet voice within. Listen to the heart of another. Listen to God, who speaks best in silence. In stillness, understanding grows. In silence, healing begins. "Be still, and know that I am God." - Psalm 46:10
