The Mission Awareness Programme

The Mission Awareness Programme (MAP) is an annual event commissioned by the Archdiocesan Commission for Missionary Activity (ACMA) that seeks to bring about a deepening of the participants' awareness of what mission means and help each person to be more missionary in his or her daily life.

With the understanding that each person is called to mission, the programme will help him or her to discern what form this calling takes. Mission is a way of being, of doing good, of sharing God's love, of being the light of Christ wherever you are.

For some people, mission simply means "being Christ" wherever they are, in their everyday settings, to their family, friends, colleagues in perfectly ordinary ways. For others, the call may mean doing outreach such as volunteering in some form in Singapore. For yet another group of people, mission may take the form of an overseas calling, to "leave everything behind" and go.

The programme will also provide some avenues for those who want to be full-time missionaries and allows many opportunities to be with local and foreign missionaries.

The MAP serves more as a formation or awareness programme than as a trip for participants to actually engage in mission work. It focuses on observations of mission firsthand in mission centres as well as sharings and talks by lay and religious missionaries.

The broad topics that are generally covered in the MAPs are :
* Introduction to Mission
* Redemptoris Missio/ Missiology
* Answering the call/Discipleship
* Discernment
* Social Situation/Needs/Mission in Singapore
* Foreign Missions
* Inter-Religious Dialogue

MAG Melaka Day trip May 2009

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ


Click here for photos taken during our recent day trip to Melaka on May 18.
There were about 30 of us, a mix of MAG participants and from Holy Cross.

We were blessed with wonderful weather, smooth immigration clearing upon entering and returning from Melaka.

Vinood, our Indian driver from Luxury tours ensured we had a smooth and safe drive, while Eileen Tan our Malaysian guide, saw to our head knowledge of history of Melaka and guided us through not only the history but the food, culture and religions in Melaka.

Aaron from the core MAG team led us in prayer at the start of the journey. During our drive up, after Eileen's briefing on the history of Melaka. Kirsten and Aaron quizzed us. Many of us were rewarded with snacks which we were snacking till we stopped for lunch!

We were treated to a Nyonya lunch and then we started our tour of Melaka, first stop being Jonkers and after that Aformosa where we had a choice of shopping or visiting St Paul's church. We being a democratic group, we split - a group went shopping and the coolness of airconditioning, while others braved the heat to climb the 30 odd steps to St Paul's church to view the temporary gravesite of St Francis.

We ended our trip by having a delicious Chinese dinner.

It was a good day for all us - made new friends, renewed old friendships, had fun - eating, shopping, sight seeing and fellowship.


God bless, Karen
