SMC Day of Recollection 2004
(1st May 04)

This year's retreat took place in a function room at the SAF Yatch Club. We were very fortunate to have with us not only Fr. Aloysius Ong, but also Fr. Paul Harry, a visiting priest from Kuching, Sarawak.

Fr Aloysius played an important role in this retreat by sharing about the "The Holy Mass" and "The Role of the Choir in the Mass". Fr Paul also made a difference by joining us in the sharings, games, songs and makan.

The day's programme ended with a meaningful "Recommitment Ceremony" where we lit candles and pledged ourselves to God's service.
