Ariel Lin Hsuan, who arrived in Singapore from her native Taiwan in 2007 with her family, is one such inspiring story.

 Various parish youth groups are all set to stage Passion plays, or scenes from the Stations of the Cross, on Good Friday to help congregations reflect more deeply on Jesus’ suffering and death.
Young people from St Anne’s Church will be dramatising the Stations of the Cross at 11am and 3pm on March 29 just before the start of the services in their parish.
This is the sixth year that the youth have been involved in the event.

Archbishop Goh commends young people for their faith commitment at Testify to Love rally
Dramatic performances put on by young Catholics at a rally moved Coadjutor Archbishop William Goh to tears.
“I’m not an emotional person but I shed a few tears when I saw the skits,” Archbishop Goh told the 700-strong crowd gathered at Catholic Junior College for the Testify to Love rally.
“I was moved by how young people can capture the story of God’s love through their performance.”

Francis X Rocca outlines the global challenges facing the new successor of St Peter
VATICAN CITY – The next pope will be taking the helm of a Church which now has a greater variety of forms of worship.
In his almost eight-year pontificate, Pope Benedict XVI worked to emphasise the liturgy’s continuity with the Church’s millennial traditions. He encouraged a revival of Eucharistic adoration and the use of Gregorian chant.
Most significantly, he lifted almost all restrictions on celebration of the Tridentine Mass, which had fallen practically out of use amid the modernising reforms that followed the Second Vatican Council.

“I do not believe in activities, I do not believe in projects – without prayer,” said Coadjutor Archbishop William Goh during his first Sunday Mass after his episcopal ordination.
“If you ask me what is the first thing I want to do,” he said, it is to “pray”. I want to deepen my prayer life, I want to build intimacy with the Lord so I can be sure that what I’m doing is really from God, doing His will and not mine,” he told a packed Cathedral of the Good Shepherd on Feb 24.

 23 January 2013
Dear Most Rev Msgr Chia,
Thank you for inviting me to the Episcopal Ordination Mass and Official Reception of Rev Msgr William Goh. I am sorry that I am unable to attend the Ordination Mass, but I am very happy to accept Your Grace’s invitation to the Ordination Reception on 23 February 2013, and look forward to seeing you then.
I wish also to take this opportunity to thank Your Grace for your contributions to Singapore and the Catholic community over the last 12 years. As Archbishop of the Catholic Church in Singapore, you have been instrumental in the many good works of the Catholic Church. Your support for the Church’s mission to serve the poor and needy, of all faiths and races, has benefited many Singaporeans.
