Christian Union - Pilgrimage to Macau

2016-12-06 13:29:20

Four years has passed and we, the Christian Union, have organised another pilgrimage to Macau. Without the help of our beloved Br. Jeffrey Chan F.S.C., Br. Thomas Favier F.S.C., Fr. Jose. Mario O. Mandia and the Sons of St. Joseph of the Old Boy Association (OBA), this pilgrimage would not be made successful. Striving to strengthen Catholic students' faith in God and to introduce the Catholic Church to the 10-15 non-Catholic students, we grasped this precious opportunity to pay a visit to a number of religious sites in Macau, including Penha Hill, St. Lawrence Church, St. Dominic's Church, St. Joseph's Seminary and Church and the Bishop's Palace . We were also honoured to meet Fr. Cyril Law, one of Mr. T. Wong's former students, and Bishop Stephen Lee Bun-sang, the Bishop of Macau. Returning from the pilgrimage, the heavy religious atmosphere in Macau really struck all of us and made all of us to question why the Catholic atmosphere between 2 lands that are an hour apart so different and we, the Christian Union, hopes that our school could have a stronger religious influence.

Once again, we would like to express our utmost sincere gratitude to Br. Jeffrey Chan F.S.C., Br. Thomas Favier F.S.C., Fr. Jose. Mario O. Mandia and the Sons of St. Joseph of the OBA, in which this pilgrimage would not be possible without your support. We would like to have our hats off to everyone of you which helped make this pilgrimage successful and we appreciate the tremendous amount of support given to us. God bless!
