The group first began in 1993 as a small six-member group within the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.
Since then, it has grown steadily, with over 130 active members now counted among them.
It aims to cater to the spiritual and social needs of the more senior members of the community.
Monthly gatherings feature a variety of activities, ranging from religious and health talks by invited speakers, to 'karaoke'
sing-a-long sessions, flower arrangement classes and Chinese brush painting.
The pot-luck dinners are renowned for the quality of the food presented. Gospel sharing is now an intrinsic part of the
group's weekly meetings.
Pilgrimages and trips to neighbouring countries have also been organised for members and their families.
The year-end dinner and dance, Chinese New Year 'yu sheng' and even disco dancing are some of the more unique activities
of this lively group. Members who fall ill can be sure of loving and prayerful support from members, as are those who
are house-bound and no longer able to travel to church.
