MANTIN, Negeri Sembilan:
The Church of St Aloysius held its Parish Pastoral Assembly (PPA) on September 21. The assembly brought together representatives from various parish ministries and Language Apostolates, including four delegates from the Orang Asal community of Kg Belihoi. Also present was Archbishop Julian Leow; and Rita Krishnan and Kevin Chung from the Archdiocesan BEC Animating Team.

Parish priest, Fr Christopher Soosaipillai, delivered the opening address and led in the recitation of the prayer for the pastoral assembly. Rita followed with a presentation summarising the findings from the earlier 'Study Day,' which focused on four key areas of concern - Church, Family, Society, and Ecology. Kevin then provided a brief translation for the benefit of the Mandarin-speaking parishioners.

The participants then moved into ‘Conversation in the Spirit’ breakout sessions, where four groups shared on the key areas of concern. Each group’s facilitator presented the views gathered from their sharing. After hearing the feedback from the groups, Archbishop Julian delivered the closing address. He reminded the assembly of the importance of evaluating activities to ensure that objectives are met and emphasised the need for the community to support one another in their faith journey. Fr Christopher then thanked everyone present and concluded the assembly with a prayer, followed by a blessing from Archbishop Julian.
