Pastoral Rooms
Our former parish offices were converted to create pastoral rooms where we can encounter parishioners, those needing pastoral and spiritual counselling, as well as those in the community seeking help through our outreach ministries. It is in living out the mission of our evangelising church where we hope those we have encountered may say, “I am glad I came!”
Please call the Parish Office at 6567-3866 to arrange appointments for confession, counselling or assistance.
Garden of Peace
& Shrine of Our Lady
The Garden of Peace forms the roof of the columbarium, which is located beneath it. It is planted with trees offering light shade on a gentle slope rising to the shrine of Our Lady at the end of the garden walkway. A wonderful place to retreat to for your silent reflection.

CGS sessions take place in a specially prepared environment called The Atrium. It is located at Level 1 and is carefully set up to provide a special place of prayer and meditation where children aged 3 to 12 years old are invited to journey in scriptural and liturgical study framed by Montessori’s principles of Catholic faith formation education.
