Flowers

 

 

 

 



One thing's for sure. I have learned to appreciate flowers ever since I came to Perth. Why? Because the house I am renting has a huge garden. And its no easy task taking care of a garden.
So I am slightly impressed when I see neat lawns and tidy gardens these days. 

My parents would burst out laughing if they ever hear me speak like this. I hated gardening when I was back home in Malaysia. Gardening was for old retirees, I used to tell them. And look at me now.

God has a funny way of running this world.

By the way, these flowers are those of he Holy Family Catholic church in Como.

Good Friday Procession Around Como




The Good Friday procession around the Holy Family Church in Como.




The procession was from 9 am to half past 10 this morning, followed by scones and coffee in the church. Reconciliation services were also provided by two priest in the church.



The 14 stations were spread out around the housing estate around the Holy Family Catholic church. Since it was a long weekend holiday, the roads were pretty much deserted. It was a very good turn out.


Even the little ones came for the procession. There were lots of children. It's nice to see the young ones attending mass. But will there still be there 20 years from now?


The procession ended back at the church where Father Aloysious ended the celebration by offering hot scones and coffee to all those who has fasted since morning.

Good Friday mass will be celebrated later at 3 pm today.
