This retreat is organized to encourage parent-child bonding, to have fun and learn together.  This event provides a platform to allow parents to support their child aged 11 - 14 years old in their transition into being a teenager.

THE CHRISTIAN CALENDAR - PENTECOST

Sun 19 May 2024 is Pentecost Sunday and begins the season of Pentecost. 

Pentecost celebrates the giving of the Holy Spirit as the Paraclete / Advocate and the birth of the Church. Coming 50 days after Easter, the season’s liturgical colour is red, symbolizing the Holy Spirit’s fire and the blood of the martyrs. Pentecost focuses on the gift and the work of the Holy Spirit, and the themes include God’s community (the Church), the gifts and fruits of the Spirit, and spreading the Gospel.
