Moving On

'Tis the eve of the Chinese New Year and in a few hours time, we will usher in the Year of the Dog.

Meanwhile, I am slowly having my brains percolating to figure out what to put up here on this day where people are now preparing to gather for their reunion dinner. Myself, I have one to join in with my godmother at her place later.

The parish will soon see off Fr JB Tou who will take up his new posting at St Bernadette. The Chinese community there will certainly gain a favourable priest after 'suffering' in silence without a fluent Mandarin celebrant for a while. Fr Tou (some parishioners here still think Tou is spelt as Two - II!!) has been in this parish of Holy Family for about 10 years or so and thsi move may be a welcome change for him. But with that we are now down to three priests to carry the burdens of the day...

Meanwhile, it is already time to move for that gathering. Happy Chinese New Year!
