On 9th July 2017 in conjunction with Bible Sunday, during the 8.30 a.m. mass. Father Lawrence Andrew SJ gave out the Tan Sri Vendargon Award 2017 to Elizabeth Lai - the recipient of the award in SFX. She received a certificate plus a cash prize of RM 400.
Elizabeth, a science stream student scored 9 distinctions for her SPM in 2016, including Bible Knowledge with 2Bs in Bahasa Melayu and Mandarin. Though soft spoken, Elizabeth was also a diligent and conscientious student in class. In church, she also helped out at the Family Day Carnival booths, coffee mornings, apart from reaching out to the Mynmar refugees.
We urge all parents to encourage their children (Forms 3-5) to come for the Bible Knowledge Classes. It is not only a ticket to those who wish to study in renowned universities, but more importantly, knowing and living "Word" which is the key to life itself - "Thy Word is the Lamp unto My Feet". Elizabeth, being a multi - talented person, with different language capabilities; though from a science background, could also grapple with the other subjects including languages, history and moral studies. Nothing is impossible with God!
We pray that all of you parents out there would be encouraged to send your children and even join them to attend Bible Knowledge classes on Sundays at 8.30 a.m. in SFX.
