For 45 years, I never went to Church and I was scared when I first came to Landings. The people at Landings encouraged me: “Take baby steps, one at a time.” You know what else they did for me? They offered to pick me up and go to Mass together. I live in Woodlands… these Holy Spirit parishioners stayed at Upper Thomson Road. And I had met them only when I came to Landings in 2013, after a series of unexplained seizures that led me to have a vision of Jesus showing me His wounds on His palms. I stay behind Church of St. Anthony and just then, the church bells rang, like Jesus was asking me, “I am here. Why are you not?” That did it – I wanted to go back to Church.

My life has completely changed with Landings. I stopped thinking only of myself and I stopped worrying about tomorrow because, well, God is here. I am at peace now – I’ve received the forgiveness I yearned for, and my soul can go to heaven. All I want is to give back what I ‘owe’ to Church and community for returning me my faith and life. How? By serving in this ministry in ways that I can. Or to do gardening, maintenance and that sort of thing when I eventually retire!
