The community of Jesuits gathered at SFX Church P.J. to celebrate the Feast of St. Ignatius of Loyola at the 6.15pm Mass 31.7.09. This Mass was an occasion for the Jesuits to remember the Founder of their Society and also the opportunity for them to renew zeal for their their priestly and religious vocation especially this year being the Year For Priests.
This year's Feast Day of St. Ignatius was also the 9th Sacerdotal Anniversary of our dear padre Rev. Fr. Simon Yong. The acting local superior of the Jesuits Rev. Fr. Lawrence Andrew in his homily also touched on the efforts of our dear padre to beautify the Church, and congratulated him and his team for their efforts.
Fr Simon Yong was then prayed over by his brother Jesuit Priests and they were joined by the parishioners in wishing him many more years of faithful service to our God and Xavier, Lord Jesus Christ.
