The Day I Met Pope Francis

The world mourned for Pope Francis’ passing into glory on 21st April 2025. World leaders and Christian communities paid tribute to this compassionate, humble, and transformative figure whose unwavering commitment to social justice touched us all.

My thoughts turned to gratitude—for his life and for the unforgettable moment Marlon and I were blessed to spend with him. It was during our third ecumenical trip to Europe last May, a journey that marked the 70th anniversary of Hong Kong Christian Council, that we had the privilege of meeting Pope Francis.

This Gloriously Unique Place and Season

Never, in the course of a year, is it okay to go all out in publicly wishing blessings to others as much as it is right now. With meals, gift-giving and carol services we celebrated Christmas and now, with Chinese New Year just around the corner, this season of spreading joy and love continues!

As a Malaysian living here, I cherish this unique blend of Western and Chinese festive traditions that are only found in Hong Kong. I love coming in to the office and seeing the vibrant red hues, the orange trees, and the fresh flowers. Fai Chun, red pieces of paper with handwritten four-character sayings that convey blessings and prosperity, decorate the entrances, hallways, and offices. It’s gorgeous!

A Thankful, Blessed and Grateful Christmas

As this year draws to a close my heart is overflowing with thanksgiving and joy for the Lord, the King of Kings, and Jesus, who is the real reason for Christmas.

This year began with a slew of challenges, and so, recalling the words of Psalm 32:8 ("I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eyes upon you”) I sought the Lord's counsel.

We were also blessed by a local church who visited our headquarters and prayed for us.
