From St. Thomas, KUANTAN to St. Thomas, ULU REMIS, Johor.


Slightly after the farewell party, Miss Camelia Fong searching for 2 more persons for Kluang visitation. After few minutes, the searching end up with Moses and Billy (thats me...) volunteered to go with them. Our journey started at 1.00pm.


We were using costal road again which for me good to test your driving skills. We enjoyed the sceneries from the van windows. During the journey, we prayed Rosary and recited Divine Mercy prayer. Our journey was like this: Pekan> Rompin> Mersing> Renggam> Ulu Remis.

We arrived at St. Thomas Chapel, Ulu Remis around 5.30pm. We was welcomed by community of Ulu Remis plantation. Father Sebastian, parish priest of Kluang also present. FYI, the chapel was deep inside in a very huge palm oil plantation owned by Sime Darby.

Before the thanksgiving mass began, Father Eugene presented the Flag of St. Thomas, Kuantan and stone of St. Thomas to the chapel representative as a token of friendship.



The thanksgiving mass began with Rosary prayer. After the mass, everybody enjoyed their dinner prepared outside the chapel. The community also tried the St. Thomas Cake baked by parishioners of St. Thomas, Kuantan.


this is my favourite part...makan...


That night, everybody enjoyed the celebration. We depart to Kuantan at 8.30pm. We arrived at Kuantan at 2.00am. The whole day I felt very tired but I enjoy the trip. I hope I have chance to visit the chapel again.
