February 21st- 24th: Formation at Kem Desa and parish
Staff of POHD once again visited the parish for its annual formations. On Friday morning, Lisa from Children's Ministry conducted the children's programme for children of the Military Camp Desa, while Susan from PHDC conducted a women's programme for the mothers of the children. After lunch, a brief Lenten formation was conducted for the youth of Kem Desa.
After lunch, another Lenten Formation was conducted for the parishioners and the Love Squad members.
The group who attended the formation were asked to complete an incomplete figure and later explain what they added. This exercise was used as an analogy to how Jesus responded to imperfect people during his time and how we respond to imperfect people today.
The Love Squad members were also briefed on this year's campaign and given the materials.
Saturday was a day for the children of the parish. About 26 children aged 6 til 12
participated in the Good Graces Module 1.3 youths from Penang volunteered in the
programme.
