In conjunction with the Season of Creation 2025, themed Peace with Creation, Caritas Penang organised a three-day, two-night immersion camp, inviting young adults to spend a night in the jungle with the Orang Asli community.

How we celebrate the Season of Creation and World Day of Migrants and Refugees in 2025?

On 5 September 2025, the Feast of Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta, Caritas Penang held a day of prayer, recollection, and planning with Lighthouse and St Joseph’s Home.

Spend a couple of hours or more a week volunteering in learning centre, medical centres, homes for the aged, women shelter or disaster affected communities.

As the season of Lent approaches, communities worldwide prepare for reflection, repentance, and renewal.

18 volunteers from 10 parishes in the diocese of Penang came forward to experience the mission of Lighthouse – a place of hope for the homeless and urban poor.

The Catholic Church expands it’s mission to reach out to help more vulnerable communities through collaboration with National Cancer Society Malaysia.

This year we witnessed many good works carried out by the Lenten team in respective parishes. For example the youths collaborated with other ministries to visit the elderly, sick and lonely, and church members after they learned about the effects of climate change are determined to put a stop to it.

As Lent is approaching, Caritas – Diocese of Penang set out Lenten Love Squad formations on deanery level.

Caritas Minor Basilica of St Anne, Bukit Mertajam collaborated with MSF (Doctors without Borders) to conduct a workshop on “Refugee Crisis in Malaysia”.

The Season of Creation ( SOC) is the annual Christian celebration to pray and respond together to the cry of Creation: the ecumenical family around the world unites to listen and care for our common home, the Oikos of God.

Caritas Penang operates under the jurisdiction of The Titular Roman Catholic Bishop of Penang.
