Showcasing Talents
A Catechetical Concert was held at the Church Hall of St Francis de Sales, Sitiawan, on 29 November 2025 to recognise and appreciate the talents of the catechism students. The Parish Priest, Rev. Fr. Stanley Antoni, parents, ECs, and many parishioners attended this concert.
The event began with a welcome speech by the coordinator followed by an opening prayer by the parish priest. Performances included a welcome dance and presentations by students from Year 1 to Form 5, such as sketches, skits, and group singing based on the theme ‘We Can Make the World a Better Place’ (Philippians 2:4).
The concert was outstanding and well received. Volunteers from the church community assisted with stage preparation, hall setup, and refreshments, contributing significantly to the smooth running of the programme. Students showcased their talents confidently, achieving the event’s objective.
The Catechetical Concert 2025 was a memorable and meaningful event. The ministry looks forward to organising more enriching programmes in the future.
