25 Baptisms Light Up Our Easter Vigil
This year's Easter Vigil was a powerful celebration of new life in Christ, as 25 new Catholics were baptised. Among them, 18 completed our OCIC and OCIA programmes, marking the culmination of months of formation, prayer, and discernment. Surrounded by the warmth of candlelight and the joy of the resurrection, the newly baptised received the sacraments of initiation and were joyfully welcomed into the Church. Each story is unique, yet all were drawn by the same call—to follow Christ and live as His disciples.
Youth Ministry: Hope Alive in the Hearts of Young People
As the Church celebrates the Jubilee Year of Hope, Stella Maris Parish youth ministry is leaning deeply into the call to renew our faith and rekindle hope among our young people.
In a world often marked by uncertainty, fear, and division, our young people are called to rise up as witnesses of God's love, bringing light to their schools, families, and communities. At the heart of our mission this year is a powerful truth: God loves His young people with an everlasting, personal, and purposeful love. Through every youth gathering, we are reminding them of this love — a love that calls, heals, and sends. Rooted in the sacraments and the life of the Church, we are helping young people identify the unique gifts God has planted in them and the fruits of the Holy Spirit growing within their hearts.
