These rainbows to me mirror the Advent themes of Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love. The themes nicely sum up to me what Christ’s coming is all about; it gives me great comfort, and is what I can hold on to as pillars in my life.

Who am I within the Nativity scene?
When reflecting on the Nativity scene, the writer comes to appreciate Advent and Christmas with a sense of spirituality.
Meditating on the role of the Magi, we learn not just generosity, but also charity. While Mary and Joseph reminds us of obedience, sacrifice and ultimately, love.
What Advent means to me
We desire to walk with one another this Advent, sharing hope, peace, joy and love of the season. Landings will share a series of what this personally means to some of us.
A Letter to You, Our Welcomers.
Dear Welcomers, As you prepare for your new run, what do you feel? Is it excitement that keeps you anticipating the first session, or are you gripped in the fear that you’re simply not prepared for the coming 10 weeks? Are you anxious about meeting new participants? Or maybe you are ready for the raceContinue reading “A Letter to You, Our Welcomers.”
Going Places: How To Be a “Traveller for God”.
I’ve been trying to discern my Christian identity and identify a role for myself within my community since my return to the faith. I look up to a number of Saints – whose lives I find an accord with – to guide my daily life and I ask for their help to pray for me.Continue reading “Going Places: How To Be a “Traveller for God”.”
A few talents, some outreach, and a big share of Grace.
Like a lot of others, I’ve felt a stirring to contribute in some way or other to Church and specifically, through the ministry I’m serving at now, especially since I completed a run through Landings just last year. It’s actually pretty easy to be invested to help in all areas of Landings – there areContinue reading “A few talents, some outreach, and a big share of Grace.”
The Other Word for ‘Coincidence’ that We Often Neglect
A recent misunderstanding with good friends led to some pain being felt. We all know the feeling. One moment, we’re carrying on the same way everyday; the next, some random occurrence makes us think about whether we’ve been doing something wrong the whole time. It was instinctive for me to both retreat and adopt aContinue reading “The Other Word for ‘Coincidence’ that We Often Neglect”
Spiritual Affirmations – When God Speaks Through Us

After all, it’s a normal Sunday Mass celebrated like anywhere else in our universal Church. The difference is the special congregation that makes this Mass a spiritual meeting point forContinue reading “Spiritual Affirmations – When God Speaks Through Us”
Who Wants To Be Alone?
Reality shows are largely farces and engineered but there is one particular programme that had me spellbound. ALONE is an American reality show on History channel and the premise is fairly self-explanatory. A raw and grittier version of Survivor, but with a humongous twist – the competitor is left entirely to his/her own devices alone.Continue reading “Who Wants To Be Alone?”
5 Insights From Conversations with God in the Adoration Room
Since Jesus is present in the Blessed Sacrament, then being in the Adoration room is probably the closest thing to be with Jesus – physically. It was this premise that took me around Adoration rooms across the island, seeking ideal places to encounter Him. Deep inside, I think I suspected it was not all about Jesus;Continue reading “5 Insights From Conversations with God in the Adoration Room”
