IDD
no not International Direct Dialling XD but it's International Day of the Deaf, celebrated annually during the last two weeks of September (no, nothing to do with Oktoberfest either, LOL)
We met at around 7am and set up the stalls. Parishioners came and strolled by, many bought: foldable bags with our "Let's Talk" alphabet prints, cake slices, Bro R's Korean beef and sausage slices (wonder how many times Trix might be howling for them as he smelt the aroma from the kitchen to the garden!), tupperware and a performance with congo by Kenny, with the interpreters Siang Ping and Intan on guitars and tambourine :3
The highlight came at 10.45am Mass when we Signed together with the Lectors and Father John Wong. Father John Wong Signed, sang and interpreted with Sign as he concurrently celebrated Mass. We did our Thanksgiving Hymn performance in the centre of the Church with the choir too!
It was truly a day to remember.
Thank you
Father John Paul for allowing us to celebrate this happy occasion and giving us a "home"
Father John Wong for co-ordinating and celebrating Mass - (Signing and speed improved a lot!!! YES!!!)
the announcer of events (due to the original poor Mandarin grammar it's a great relief when the announcer re is fine-tuned it!) of the Mandarin Mass
10.45am Fathers, Lectors, Psalmist and the Choir - thank you for the Alleluia!!! - Altar Boys, Wardens, Communion Ministers. All parishoners who attended this special Mass and Alleluia-ed with us!
other Ministries who came by and supported us in many ways
Parishioners who stopped by, took time to read our posters and supported us in many ways too
J's personal thanks to Zhong Han, Johnson and Sihui for the Mandarin translation (and for tolerating my panick-mode), the bookstore that had everything that was needed one day before the event and mommie for staying up as late as possible for moral support for the preparation for the Mandarin Mass!
INFINITE THANK YOU!!!!

"Thus He chose us in Christ
before the world was made
to be holy and faultless
before him in love,
marking us out for himself beforehand,
to be adopted songs,
through Jesus Christ
...in whom through His Blood,
we gain our freedom,
the forgiveness of our sins
..And it is in in Him
that we have received our heritage.."
excerpts of the 2nd Reading of Ephesians 1:3-14

"Praise the Lord, for He Is Good"
"We are never alone in our sufferings. Should we ever experience the anguish of being ridiculed or put down by family of friends, we are never alone.
The Lord Jesus stands with us in our times of trial, giving us the grace we need to bear patiently with our sufferings, never stooping to do the same level as those who would cause us pain.
Through the Holy Eucharist we participate in the saving death and glorious resurrection of the Lord.
May the grace of the Holy Eucharist being us forbearance and courage as we carry our crosses."
