Some 120 people signed up, comprising parishioners from the Church of the Holy Family, Kajang, and students from the Catholic Students’ Societies of eight universities: Heriot-Watt University Malaysia, Multimedia University , UCSI University, University of Cyberjaya, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia , Universiti Putra Malaysia , Universiti Tenaga Nasional and University of Nottingham Malaysia.
Holy Family parish priest, Fr Michael Chua, the speaker for the event, highlighted the importance of interreligious dialogue, particularly after the Malaysian General Elections, GE-15. He drew connections from Bible verses on how Jesus is ‘the great bridge builder’, using the familiar story of Jesus and the Woman of Samaria. It concluded with a Q&A session, with questions from parishioners and students alike, such as, the Catholic Church’s view on dating people of other faiths.
The event facilitated an intercampus fellowship and bonding through dinner and some games. This was the first time in nearly three years that the university students were able to meet up and interact with each other through an event. Sr Margaret Pereira, RGS, the chaplain of the Campus Ministry played an important role in linking up the many Catholic Students’ Societies within the boundary of the Church of the Holy Family.
The event was successful and garnered a lot of positive comments from the participating crowd, with many looking forward to more events like this.
