Our OCDS Community rejoiced in receiving the Decree of Canonical Establishment after 22 years of existence. The Mass of thanksgiving and presentation of the Decree was held on November 19, 2022, on the eve of the Solemnity of Christ the King (Feast of Our Community), at the Carmelite friars\u2019 Chapel. It was presided over by Archbishop Simon Poh of Kuching, concelebrated by Archbishop Emeritus John Ha, Father John Chua OCD (delegate of the Taiwan-Singapore Delegation) and other priests. Franciscan Sisters, OCDS members, family, friends, organizers and donors participated in this historic event.<\/p>\n

After the homily, Father John Chua read the Decree before presenting it to the President and one of the founding members of our Community, Catherine Sim OCDS, assisted by OCDS Council members, Juliana Lim OCDS, Datin Sri Annie Yeo OCDS, Monica Soon OCDS and Cynthia Lim OCDS, and founding member Jacqueline Sammy OCDS.<\/p>\n
