On the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, parishioners and visitors gathered for the annual Corpus Christi Celebration and Eucharistic Procession, publicly witnessing their faith in the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist.

Following the celebration of Holy Mass, the faithful accompanied the Blessed Sacrament in procession through the streets of Brickfields. This cherished tradition is both an act of worship and a public proclamation of the Church’s belief that Christ is truly present — Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity — in the Eucharist.

Carried reverently by Fr. Andrew Manickam in the Monstrance, the Blessed Sacrament was sheltered beneath a baldachin borne by members of the Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion (EMHC). The baldachin serves as a sign of honour and reverence, reflecting the dignity due to Christ present in the Eucharist.

Throughout the procession, hymns of praise filled the streets as altar servers, ministers, flower girls, and members of the congregation accompanied Our Lord in prayer. The ringing of bells, the fragrance of incense, the scattering of rose petals, and the glow of candlelight created a prayerful atmosphere of devotion and thanksgiving.

At various points along the route, blessings were imparted upon the surrounding neighbourhood and community, reminding all present that Christ walks among His people and continues to bless the world through His Eucharistic presence.

As the faithful sang together:

“O Sacrament Most Holy,
O Sacrament Divine,
All praise and all thanksgiving,
Be every moment Thine.”

may the celebration of Corpus Christi continue to deepen our love for the Eucharist and strengthen our commitment to live as faithful disciples of Christ.

As we prepare to celebrate the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, special parking arrangements have been made to accommodate the expected number of parishioners and visitors attending the evening celebration and Eucharistic Procession.

The parish kindly requests all attendees to make use of the designated parking locations indicated in the notice. These arrangements have been coordinated to ensure the smooth flow of traffic, facilitate the procession route, and minimise inconvenience to residents and other road users in the surrounding area.

Your cooperation will assist the organising team and volunteers in creating a safe and prayerful environment for all who will be participating in this important celebration of our faith.

We encourage everyone to arrive early and familiarise themselves with the available parking options before the start of the programme.

Thank you for your understanding, patience, and support as we gather to honour Christ present in the Holy Eucharist.

n conjunction with the Wesak Day celebrations, members of the Parish Ministry of Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs (PMEIA) joined volunteers from the Church of Our Lady of Fatima in a simple yet meaningful outreach to pilgrims and visitors at the Buddhist Maha Vihara, Brickfields.

Through the distribution of vegetarian meals, parish volunteers had the opportunity to extend a gesture of hospitality, service, and goodwill to members of the wider community gathered for the celebrations.

This initiative reflects the Church’s commitment to fostering mutual respect, understanding, and friendship among people of different faith traditions. In a diverse society such as ours, opportunities for encounter and service help build bridges between communities and strengthen the spirit of harmony that enriches our nation.

The parish extends its sincere appreciation to the members of PMEIA and all volunteers who contributed their time and effort towards this outreach. Their willingness to serve is a reminder that acts of kindness, no matter how simple, can become powerful expressions of solidarity and neighbourly love.

May we continue to deepen relationships within our community and seek opportunities to build understanding, peace, and friendship among all people.

In conjunction with World Environment Day, members from across the Archdiocese gathered at Taman Tugu, Kuala Lumpur, for a morning nature walk organised by the Archdiocesan Creation Justice Ministry.

Participants explored the various trails within this unique urban forest, taking time to appreciate the richness and diversity of creation found within the heart of the city. Along the way, they encountered colourful butterflies, dragonflies, birds, frogs, and a variety of flora, offering moments of wonder and reflection amidst nature’s beauty.

Beyond the physical activity, the gathering provided an opportunity for participants to experience the practice of “forest bathing” — slowing down, being present, and reconnecting with the natural environment. Surrounded by the sights and sounds of creation, many found renewed appreciation for the gift of God’s creation and the importance of protecting it for future generations.

World Environment Day serves as a reminder that caring for creation begins with small and intentional actions. Inspired by the teachings of Laudato Si’, the Archdiocesan Creation Justice Ministry encourages all people to take practical steps towards environmental stewardship and responsible care for our common home.

As we continue to enjoy the beauty of creation, may we also deepen our commitment to safeguarding it for the benefit of all.

Dear friends, every Thursday, the two of us set out on our usual rounds to visit the sick and pray for those who are homebound. During these visits, we administer the sacraments and offer spiritual support. Today, however, there were three of us, and we continued with our mission of care and prayer.

One memorable encounter was with a wonderful person named Mr. Michael. He has been living in his home for some time, needing pastoral care and companionship. As we were about to begin our prayer, Mr. Michael kindly asked if we could pray the Rosary together or even just a decade of the Rosary. I was momentarily taken aback because we still had several other homes to visit. We proceeded with our prayer, and after Holy Communion, and l heard a gentle whisper within—why not join him for a prayer?

What truly touched us was that earlier, Mr. Michael had wanted to pray for us. Here was a man, frail at 80 years old, in his small room, praying for us. It was a powerful moment—someone who was in need of prayer, offering it in return for our visit. We sat together in his humble space, and Mr. Michael prayed a decade of the Rosary for us.
He ends the decade by asking the powerful intercessions of St Jude and St Anthony.

I can’t fully describe how this encounter moved us. It was a remarkable witness of faith and humility. I believe God wanted Mr. Michael to pray for us, to remind us of the profound power of prayer and the humility needed to receive and give love. This experience touched our hearts deeply, especially as we approach the Solemnity of Corpus Christi, which celebrates Christ’s presence in the Eucharist and in every act of love and service.

Thank you, Mr. Michael, for your prayer. Your faith and generosity have left a lasting impression on us. May God bless you abundantly.

Ahead of the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi), Pope Leo XIV has encouraged Catholics throughout the world to preserve and participate in the cherished tradition of Corpus Christi processions.

Speaking during his General Audience, the Holy Father reflected on the importance of these public expressions of faith, describing them as a beautiful witness to belief in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. He noted that Eucharistic processions continue to be a powerful manifestation of devotion in many towns, cities, and countries across the world.

“In the Eucharist we contemplate Jesus, bread broken and given for each one of us,” the Pope reminded the faithful.

The Solemnity of Corpus Christi invites Catholics to deepen their love for the Blessed Sacrament and to publicly profess their faith in Christ’s presence in the Eucharist. Through prayer, adoration, and Eucharistic processions, the faithful bear witness to the central mystery of our faith and bring Christ into the heart of our communities.

Pope Leo XIV also took the opportunity to assure priests and religious serving in the Middle East of his prayers and support, and encouraged religious communities throughout the world to remain signs of hope for those seeking God, truth, and peace.

As our parish prepares to celebrate Corpus Christi, may we heed the Holy Father’s invitation by participating wholeheartedly in the liturgical celebrations and Eucharistic Procession, giving public witness to our faith in the Lord who remains with us in the Blessed Sacrament.
