KOTA PADAWAN — Friar Derrick Yap OFM, Custos of Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei, together with General Visitor, Friar Robert Frazzetta OFM, arrived at St Ann’s Parish for a fraternal visit from 26–30 June 2022.
The visit to Kuching was filled with plenty of activities, beginning with a courtesy call on Archbishop Simon Poh of the Kuching Archdiocese.
They then spent time with the staff of St Ann’s Parish that included a tour around the church. Both friars also met the Franciscan Aspirants of Sarawak, to share their vocation to the religious life.
