EXPLORING RELIGIOUS VOCATION
Vocation means a call. Everyone is called by God to be and do. Often, we use “religious vocation” to refer to a call from God to priesthood and full-time ministry. To discover God’s calling is a journey, perhaps a lifelong journey. We hope we can walk along side with you to discern the religious call together, support and encourage you step-by-step in your journey for the glory and praise of God. Please talk to your priest today or consider joining one of the programs below.

我于1979年完成五年神学课程,在西马教区被按立为会吏,开始我全职传道生涯至今已40年了。回忆神的呼召及恩佑,把本是个平凡乡下人的我,改变成牧师及荣休会督,我不得不引用保罗的话:“然而我今日成了何等人,是蒙神的恩才成的。” (林前15:10上)
When I was 16, my brother and I attended a Methodist Youth Retreat organized by the Tamil Methodist Church, Taiping which was held in Bukit Larut. It was at this retreat that I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour. I was a Methodist then.
我生长在基督教家庭,祖母虔诚信主,但父母由于工作极少到教会。我参加主日学,听圣经故事,明知有神及耶稣爱我,但没有服从神。少年的我离开教会结交损友,染上不良习惯。舅舅邀请我参加圣公会少年团,我就在少年福音营信主,积极事奉并追求圣经及灵性长进。16岁那年,我在青年营听道后,回应全职服事的呼召,并将这承诺存在心中。
Since my retirement as Diocesan Bishop at the end of March 2007, God has been faithful in caring for us over the twelve years.
