The Archdiocesan Creation Justice Ministry invites the faithful to gather for a Holy Hour and Eucharistic Celebration in observance of the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation on Saturday, 5 September 2026, at the Grotto of Our Lady of Fatima, Church of St John Marie Vianney, Tampin.

The gathering takes place during the Season of Creation, the annual ecumenical journey of prayer and commitment to safeguarding our common home. The Season begins on 1 September with the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation and concludes on 4 October, the Feast of St Francis of Assisi.

This year, Pope Leo XIV will open the Season of Creation by celebrating Mass for the Care of Creation on 1 September at the Laudato Si’ Village in the Pontifical Gardens of Castel Gandolfo. The Church is invited during this season to renew its commitment to creation through prayer, conversion and concrete acts of stewardship.

As Cardinal Michael Czerny reminds us, creation is a gift from God which carries with it a responsibility: caring for creation also means caring for human life, especially the vulnerable and future generations.

The OLF Parish Integral Human Development Ministry (PIHD), through the OLF Mission Volunteers, will carry out Kasih Meal 5 on Monday, 31 August 2026, continuing the parish’s outreach to those in need.

The initiative will reach out to 40 individuals, particularly DBKL contract workers, with each recipient receiving a bag of rice, cooking oil and biscuits.

Through this simple act of giving, the initiative seeks to put the Corporal Works of Mercy into practice and remind us that Christian charity calls us to recognise the dignity of those whom we encounter and to share generously with those in need.

As Pope Leo reminds us, almsgiving invites us to stop, encounter the poor personally and share something of ourselves with them.

Fr Andrew Manickam: 016-521 6510

May these small acts of generosity become an expression of Christ’s love for our brothers and sisters.

In conjunction with World Photography Day, observed on 19 August, the Church of Our Lady of Fatima invites photographers to receive a special blessing during the 10.30am Mass on Sunday, 23 August 2026.

This year’s World Photography Day theme, “Home”, offers an opportunity to reflect on how photography can help us see more attentively the people, places and moments that surround us.

For Christians, the camera can also become a means of recognising and respecting the dignity of the human person. Every person is created in the image and likeness of God, and photography carries with it a responsibility to portray others with sensitivity, compassion and respect.

Photography can even invite us to pause and ask: What is God inviting me to notice? Through the lens, moments of beauty, suffering, love, hope and everyday life can become occasions for gratitude and reflection.

📅 Sunday, 23 August 2026
⛪ 10.30am Mass
📍 Church of Our Lady of Fatima

All photographers are warmly invited to receive the special blessing.

Those interested in joining the OLF Photography Ministry may also contact Fr Andrew Manickam.

The Church of Our Lady of Fatima invites all lectors and those interested in deepening their understanding of the Ministry of the Word to a special formation session on Saturday, 26 September 2026.

Sacred Scripture holds a central place in the celebration of the Eucharist. As the General Instruction of the Roman Missal reminds us, when the Scriptures are proclaimed in the liturgy, God himself speaks to his people, and Christ, present in his word, proclaims the Gospel.

This formation session seeks to nurture the spirituality of lectors and deepen their understanding of the responsibility entrusted to those who proclaim the Word of God during the liturgy.

Participants will be encouraged to grow not simply in the practical aspects of proclamation, but also in approaching Sacred Scripture with the reverence, understanding and faithfulness that this ministry requires.

Date: Saturday, 26 September 2026
Time: 9.00am – 12 noon
Venue: Dewan Fatima

For further information, please contact:

Ann: 012-349 8738
Kathleen: 019-362 3194

All lectors and those interested in learning more about this important liturgical ministry are welcome.
