The participantsTawau : The English CCR & Filipino Community of Holy Trinity Church, together with the Diocesan Service Team of the Kota Kinabalu Archdiocese, jointly held the above seminar on 8th November 2009.
With the theme “I am the Lord that healed Thee”, the seminar concentrated on unforgiveness, relationship problems, hurts and pain, hidden and shameful sins of previous life experiences.
The parish indeed felt very privileged to be able to hold this seminar in Tawau because it is usually held in Bundu Tuhan only. More than 200 people turned up for the seminar, with quite a number from Lahad Datu, Semporna and other outstations like Luasong and Bombalai.
From the seminar, many discovered the areas in their lives that needed to be healed.. Surprisingly, almost half of those coming for counseling were men.
Daniel KongThe teams also gave an extra input and sharing session to the Filipino community on the importance of the word of God in their daily lives.
After the seminar, many of those attended felt that there was a need to have it again next year with a longer session instead of just a weekend, so that more time could be given for counseling.
The organizers were indeed very grateful to the team from Kota Kinabalu of Joseph Chee, Daniel Kong, Anthony Lim, Anthony Kong and Monica Kong, and also to the strong support of the rector Msgr. Nicholas Ong and his assistant Fr. Philip Muji for the success of this seminar.
