The retreat includes talks by Fr Valerian Cheong, Fr Andrew Wong and Joseph Fernandez on being more aware of supernatural realms on social media and other openings which lead people away from God, what the first commandment entails and so on.
The event is free but registration is required. You can register now, as spaces are limited.

Some of the topics that will be covered include:
• The Welcoming Parish – How can our parish community be known for our radical and generous hospitality?
• Sacramental Hospitality – How can we be more intentional in practising the art of hospitality in our sacramental environments?
• Mental Health Matters – How do we serve and respond to mentally vulnerable people who we come across in the parish, or who come and seek help and support from the parish?

A foundational leadership development workshop that offers participants a practical model based on Jesus’ servant leadership. In the 2 sessions, participants will encounter a leadership framework comprising 4 domains of leading like Jesus: the heart, head, hands and habits.
To register or find out more for both training courses, go to www.catholicleader.sg
As leaders, we may be so used to tending to those under our care that we may not look into our own spiritual and emotional well-being. Might we have any childhood trauma or past hurt that continues to affect our behaviour today and result in wounding those we lead?
The Catholic Leadership Centre is pleased to present a 2-day 1-night (2D1N) weekend stay-in retreat locally. You will spend time with Jesus in personal prayer, contemplating the Word of God. You will be guided for your Sacrament of Reconciliation. You will also meet with a Spiritual Director one-to-one to guide you in your personal prayer.
Through conversations and interactive group activities, participants will develop a shared understanding of trust and take personal responsibility for how they can develop deeper levels of trust at an inter-personal level as well as at a group level.
Learning insights are drawn out from the participants' own personal experiences. They will develop their personal action plan to practise with community members by the end of the session.
