Synodal Formation Journey Continues

The synodal journey continues to gather momentum within our community, building on the strong foundation established during the first formation session conducted in English by Fr Dr Clarence Devadass on 3 and 4 November 2025, which drew 120 participants.

This was followed by fruitful formation sessions in Mandarin, led by Michael Sew, and in Bahasa Malaysia, facilitated by Elena Woo and Gregory Pravin Rajah, with over 50 and 40 participants attending respectively. These multilingual sessions reflect the richness and diversity of our local Church.

As the journey moves into the implementation phase, the next formation session will be held in Tamil by Fr Selva on 3 and 4 March, with additional training on the pathways outlined in the Final Document to follow.



These sessions remind us that the synodal journey began not with a committee, but with Baptism, through which we are commissioned into the Body of Christ. Guided by the sensus fidei (sense of faith) and the grace of the Holy Spirit, we continue to grow from personal reflection into communal discernment, embracing our shared calling as missionary disciples walking and growing together.
