A Gathering of Faith, Fellowship and Care with St Jude BEC

Fr. Andrew Manickam recently responded to a request from St Jude BEC, OUG, bringing the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick and the Eucharist to 21 members gathered at a common residence.

The members, aged between 51 and 92, gathered in prayer around a lighted candle to receive the Sacrament. Fr. Andrew was accompanied by Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion (EMHCs).

Before their arrival, the BEC members learnt that Fr. Andrew had been delayed as he had gone to Pantai Hospital to anoint a parishioner in the ICU. They immediately began praying the Rosary for the parishioner, together with other intentions.

Following the Anointing and distribution of Holy Communion, Fr. Andrew led everyone in prayer before joining the members for lunch and fellowship.

The gathering also provided an opportunity for conversation, with questions ranging from the recently concluded Malaysia Pastoral Convention 2026 to the proper handling of the Eucharist when Holy Communion is brought to homebound parishioners.

The gathering was a reminder of the important role our BECs play in bringing the prayer, pastoral care and fellowship of the Church into our homes and communities.

Kasih Meal 5 – A Merdeka Day Work of Mercy

In conjunction with Malaysia’s 69th Independence Day, OLF Parish Integral Human Development Ministry (PIHD) carried out Kasih Meal 5, reaching out to DBKL contract workers who work each day to keep the streets of Kuala Lumpur clean.

As an expression of gratitude and in keeping with the Corporal Works of Mercy, 36 provision bags were distributed to the workers and their families across Kuala Lumpur.

The outreach was made possible through the generosity of benefactors who contributed towards the initiative and supported OLF PIHD in putting faith into action through practical care for others.

We thank all who contributed to Kasih Meal 5 and helped make this Merdeka Day an occasion not only for celebrating our nation, but also for remembering and appreciating those whose work serves our wider community.

119 Participants Take to the Streets for Green Hunt KL

The streets of Brickfields became the setting for Green Hunt KL on 25 August 2026, as 119 participants from across the Archdiocese of Kuala Lumpur took part in an activity combining teamwork, problem-solving and environmental awareness.

The event began at the Church of Our Lady of Fatima, where Archbishop Julian Leow flagged off the participants before joining his own team for the hunt.

Working in teams, participants followed clues through Brickfields, unscrambled words, identified buildings and deciphered signs while making their way through the neighbourhood. They later travelled by LRT from KL Sentral to Kelana Jaya, continuing to answer questions along the journey before assembling at the Church of St Ignatius for the concluding activities and lunch.

Organised by the Archdiocesan Creation Justice Ministry, Green Hunt KL sought to make environmental awareness engaging and practical. The activity encouraged teamwork, responsible use of public transport and simple actions that participants can take in caring for our common home.

The Archdiocesan Creation Justice Ministry expressed its appreciation to Archbishop Julian for participating in the event and to everyone who contributed towards making the Green Hunt an enjoyable and meaningful experience.
