BIBLICAL JOURNEY TO THE HOLY LAND

26 OCTOBER TO 5 NOVEMBER 2014

Dear Pilgrims to the Holy Land,

Greetings of peace and joy to you in our Lord Jesus Christ!

It has been my delight and joy to have accompanied you on your Biblical Journey to the Holy Land. It was an intense journey as we spent much time praying, reflecting, listening, and for some of us, crying as well. But this intensity was coupled with much joy in our hearts, I believe, because we experienced the presence of our resurrected Lord with us as we followed in His footsteps.

I am both grateful and proud that each one of you showed such love and consideration towards one another throughout the trip even though many of you had only just got to know one another. Your willingness to keep punctual time for all our appointments was a sign of your love for your neighbour, nothing short of holiness that was very becoming of a community of pilgrims seeking to follow in the footsteps of our Lord.

I am also particularly touched by how all of you embarked on the journey to the cross at the Via Dolorosa. I was aware that a number of you were having problems kneeling because of your physical limitations. And yet, at Golgotha, all of you fell on your knees (some of you on all fours!) before calvary. Your deep love for God has touched me in ways that I cannot adequately express. Thank you for being such a great inspiration to my faith.

Please be assured that Fr Michael Chua and I are praying for you daily, and we ask you also to keep us in your constant prayers. By God's grace, we may be able to embark on another pilgrimage together in time to come.

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all!


United in prayer,
Deacon Sherman Kuek OFS
