Saints walk among us today

Last year, I watched Father Anthonyswamy stack boxes of canned goods in the pouring rain. His small rural church had organized a food drive for flood victims, and there he was, not just preaching about love from the pulpit, but living it in the muddy parking lot.

A volunteer nearby whispered something that stayed with me: “He is not just a priest; he is a saint for us.” That moment sparked a question I cannot shake: Do we desperately need more saints in today’s Church?

I am not talking about the marble statues in cathedrals or names etched in Church history. Saint Francis, renouncing his wealth, and Saint Teresa, in mystical prayer, feel impossibly distant from our everyday struggles. But real sainthood is not about perfection or headline-grabbing miracles. It is about showing up consistently with hearts open to God and neighbors.

‘When love gets complicated’: Cardinal Goh offers guidance on faith and relationships

Cardinal William Goh offered candid reflections on love, faith, and the complexities of relationships during his third Heart-to-Heart dialogue this year.

The session, titled “When Love Gets Complicated,” drew about 80 participants — young singles, married couples, and divorcees — who sought guidance on questions surrounding intimacy before marriage, interfaith relationships, and life after divorce.

When asked by a young woman where a couple should “draw the line” in physical intimacy, Cardinal Goh responded, “If you cannot praise God with something you do, you know it’s a sin.”

Pope’s November prayer intention: ‘for the prevention of suicide’

Pope Leo XIV’s monthly prayer intention for November is “for the prevention of suicide.”

The Pope invited the Church to pray for this intention in this month’s The Pope Video, which is entrusted to the entire Catholic Church through the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network. The video is produced and distributed by the Network with the support of the U.S. Diocese of Phoenix, Arizona, and in collaboration with Vatican Media.

Accompanying those struggling
Specifically, the video opens with the Pope inviting faithful to join him in praying that “those who are struggling with suicidal thoughts might find the support, care, and love they need in their community, and be open to the beauty of life.”

Thursday of week 31 in Ordinary Time

Lost and found

The shepherd left the 99 sheep in the wilderness to search for the one lost sheep, despite the risks of the others wandering off or being harmed. In a profit-driven world, few would choose to seek just one lost sheep. The woman lost one drachma, worth a day's wages for a labourer in Jesus' time. Although she had nine others, she valued the lost coin highly. She lit her lamp and searched diligently until she found it. In a throwaway culture, many would not bother looking for a single lost drachma.

Pope Leo visits Basilica of St Mary Major; prays at Pope Francis’ tomb

Before heading to Castel Gandolfo for his customary weekly day of rest, Pope Leo XIV stopped at around 8.05pm this evening at the Basilica of St Mary Major to pray before the tomb of Pope Francis.

On the marble slab—where a white rose is always placed in memory of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, a constant spiritual presence in the life of the Argentine pontiff—Pope Leo laid a bouquet of white roses. It was a gesture of homage to his predecessor, buried between the Sforza Chapel and the Pauline Chapel. The latter is home to the icon of Salus Populi Romani, so often visited by Pope Francis before and after each international journey or hospital stay.

According to the Holy See Press Office, Pope Leo also paused in prayer in front of the Marian image before leaving the basilica around 8.15pm and continuing his journey to Castel Gandolfo.

Wednesday of week 31 in Ordinary Time

The cost of discipleship

In today’s reading from St Paul’s letter to the Romans, he emphasises the importance of love, stating, “Avoid getting into debt, except the debt of mutual love… Love is one thing that cannot hurt your neighbour...” These words continue to call out to us to remind us about the primacy of love in our relationships with our family, friends and even those we struggle to be with. Genuine and selfless love should direct our interactions with them and lead us to constantly seek their well-being.

沙巴公教報編輯團隊首次禮貌拜訪 山打根主教及大眾傳播委員會

（ 本報訊） 2 0 2 5 年9月27日（星期六），在亞庇黃士交總主教的支持下，沙巴公教報編輯團隊在本報主編尼閣副主教的率領下，一行八人前往山打根教區中心，首次禮貌拜訪余廉吉頓主教，以商討彼此合作的事宜。

副主编P e t e r Zeter向主教彙報有關本報的偉視与使命之後，團隊又與山打根的大眾傳播委員會（SOCCOM）成員及其神师斯丹利 （Fr Stanley Matakim）一起作交流。其成員除了来自山打根主教座堂，也有來自那篤，斗湖，得鲁必及貝魯蘭的堂區。

先由沙巴公教報准主筆Peter Zeter呈獻有關基督徒新聞靈修觀的講題，強調文章内容雖要追求真理，但要先顧慮到教會的合一精神。寫作思维建基在每個人是天主以自己的肖像所創造的及每项事件的發生，都在天主的計劃中。因此，各堂的大眾傳播委員會所扮演的角色舉足輕重，根據教會活動實況來報導，給讀者提供可靠的消息，並激發他們的信德。

We must rebuild the village to raise our children

Are our children safe in schools, churches, and other social institutions?

This is a question Christian parents are increasingly asking, says Dr Brendan J. Gomez, pic, Consulting Psychologist, Associate Professor, and Christian parent.

In an interview with HERALD, Dr Gomez said the disturbing rise in cases of child suicides, r**e, and even murder — both locally and abroad — has shaken the confidence of parents and faith communities alike.
