Let us come together in prayer for all our priests, thanking God for their faithful service and asking Him to continue blessing their ministry.

From 22 to 28 July 2026, the Church of Our Lady of Fatima will host the Perjalanan Salib (Journey of the Cross) as part of the nationwide pilgrimage leading to the Malaysia Pastoral Convention (MPC) 2026.

This 17-month pilgrimage, which began in April 2025, unites the nine dioceses and archdioceses of Malaysia in a common journey of prayer, reflection and communion. It forms part of the Church’s continuing commitment to strengthen unity and synodality under the theme “Celebrate, Listen, Walk as One Church.”

Throughout the week, our parish community will gather each day to pray for one of the dioceses or archdioceses of Malaysia while reflecting on the four pastoral priorities of the Convention:

• Family
• Church
• Society
• Ecology

In addition, we will lift up in prayer our families, parishioners, brothers and sisters who are ill, our senior citizens and the elderly, our Basic Ecclesial Communities (BECs), those affected by ecological issues, and all who are poor and marginalised.

As we journey together towards the Malaysia Pastoral Convention 2026, may we become a Church that listens more attentively, walks more closely with one another, and bears joyful witness to Christ in our homes, our communities and our nation.

We warmly encourage all parishioners to participate throughout the week. Please refer to the accompanying posters for the daily programme and schedule.

On 16 July, the Church celebrates the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, one of the oldest Marian devotions in the Catholic tradition.

The title “Our Lady of Mount Carmel” traces its origins to Mount Carmel in the Holy Land, where Christian hermits dedicated their lives to prayer under the patronage of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Over the centuries, this devotion has become closely associated with the Carmelite Order and the Brown Scapular, a sign of Mary’s loving protection and our commitment to follow Christ faithfully.

The feast reminds us that Mary is our spiritual mother, always leading us to her Son and encouraging us to live lives of faith, prayer and charity. Through her maternal intercession, we are invited to place our trust in God and to persevere in hope, especially during life’s trials.

As a parish dedicated to Our Lady of Fatima, we joyfully join the universal Church in honouring Our Lady under this cherished title, asking her to accompany us on our journey of faith.

“O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.”

Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us.

n response to the Holy Father’s call for prayer, the Church of Our Lady of Fatima invites all parishioners to unite in prayer for unity, reconciliation and healing within the Church.

At this sorrowful moment, we join Catholics around the world in praying that “the seamless garment of Christ, wounded by division, may once again be visibly restored.”

During this special time of prayer, we entrust the Church to the Lord, asking Him to pour out His Spirit of peace, heal every wound of division, and strengthen us in charity, communion and mutual understanding.

“That they may all be one.” (John 17:21)

The Church of Our Lady of Fatima invites all parishioners and friends to join in prayer for the victims of the recent earthquake in Venezuela.

In moments of tragedy and suffering, the Church is called to stand in solidarity with our brothers and sisters throughout the world through prayer, compassion, and hope. As one family of faith, we entrust all those affected by this disaster—those who have lost loved ones, homes, and livelihoods—to the loving care and mercy of God.

Parishioners are encouraged to light a candle in their homes on 30 June and 1 July as a visible sign of prayer and remembrance.

The Archdiocesan Prayer Ministry will also lead a Candlelight Rosary at the Church of Our Lady of Fatima at 7.30pm on both evenings, praying for the victims, their families, rescue workers, and all who continue to suffer the effects of this tragedy.

May Our Lady of Fatima, Queen of Peace and Comfort of the Afflicted, intercede for the people of Venezuela and bring them strength, consolation, and hope.

“Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.” (Romans 12:15)
