Annual Feast Day of Our Mother of Perpetual Church.

| the Flying Rosary ......... |
 |
| 6.15pm, the congregation full house in church and enjoying the air-con listening to the chinese choir |
This year Parish Priest Fr
Joseph Stephens decided to hold the event in Church instead of outdoors. In the
past few years the rain threatened and the congregation had to shift indoors halfway
through the mass ensuing much confusion. This year with good planning
the mass went by like a breeze from start till the end with a wonderful
fellowship.
