The Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish bid farewell to Divine Word Missionary assistant parish priest Father Joseph Jia Dei Li on November 1, following his reassignment to a new post by his congregation.

Held at the parish’s Prayer Garden, the gathering was attended by parish priest Father Jean Sylvere Mbuela Pfuti, assistant parish priests Father Peter Leung and Father Joseph Cai, pastoral Sister Monica Zung, members of the parish council, and parishioners from both the Chinese and English-speaking communities.

In a post on the parish’s Facebook page, Father Jia expressed his gratitude for the support he received over the past three years. He said that his time at the parish made him feel deeply blessed, and he will continue working faithfully for the flock of the Church in his next assignment. SE
