History of the Church of St. Anne Bukit Mertajam


It was at Batu Kawan, as early as 1833 that Catholics first originated in Province Wellesley. They were mainly Chinese and Indian. It was from here that the Catholics gradually moved to Permatang Tinggi, Macang Bubok and Bukit Mertajam. By 1840, the Chinese Catholics started settling down at the Bukit Mertajam foothill.

The early priests were all Frenchmen and they visited Bukit Mertajam from Batu Kawan. In 1846, the first visiting priest, Fr. Adolphe Couellan decided that there was a need for a chapel and built one just below where now stands the hill top St. Anne's statue.St. Anne was (and still is) a very popular patron saint amongst the French. Naturally, the chapel was named after her.
From 1860 onwards, priests residing at Permatang Tinggi chapel took over the visiting to the St. Anne's Parish. In 1865, Fr. Maistre who was the first visiting priest from there, built a bigger second chapel. It was located lower down, closer to where the old St. Anne's church is. Today you can still see the remains of this chapel just behind the well of Saint Anne's water.
In 1869, Fr. Allard came as the first resident priest. Fr. F.P. Sorin arrived in 1875 and he built the first church and it was ready in 1888. Fr. Sorin died on 26th July (St. Anne's Feast Day), 1907, in Teluk Wang and was buried at the entrance of St. Anne's old church.
The stained glass set featuring St. Anne and also a set of three bells from France were installed at the old church in 1896 by Fr. Charles Grenier. During the Japanese occupation the bells were dismantled. Only one of them has been recovered.
In 1938, Fr. Laurent was here briefly and during his time, he organised the first church choir with Datuk Wong Pow Nee as the choir master. That same year, Fr. Joachim Teng took over the parish. It was he who bought the land where the Kim Sen school and the second church are now located. In 1941, the war broke out and masses were disrupted as the Japanese occupied the church land. The situation was back to normal after the war in 1946.
In 1948, "Emergency" was declared and the old church grounds became a prohibited area due to communist activities. The residents were resettled and church services were held in the Convent.
In 1957, the second church was built by Fr. Thomas Chin. This is the church next to Kim Sen school which has been called the "new church" for the last 45 years. The Centenary Celebration of the parish was held in 1969 under Fr. P. Grandvuillemin.
Fr. Peter Pang who took over as parish priest in 1977, built a permanent altar shed in front of the old church and also the parochial and reconciliation halls at the old church compound. He also installed the statue at the top of the hill after fire destroyed the shrine there.
Fr. Augustine Wong arrived in 1984. He removed the shed in front of the old church for a clearer view. He also reinstalled the stained glass behind the altar, which was damaged and one of the original bells which was recovered. In 1987, he built the shrine of Our Lady of Fatima at the second church and improved on the parochial and reconciliation halls at the old church. These were used for masses, retreats, and meetings as well. In 1988, the Centenary Celebration of the old church building was held.
The St. Anne's water fonts were altered to what they are today in 1997, soon after Fr. Michael Cheah was assigned as Administrator for the parish.

Penang Xmas open house at Autocity on Dec 18

MORE than 10,000 people are expected to attend the state-level Christmas open house at Shop in d’Park, in Highway Autocity Juru here on Dec 18, 2011.

Some 100 members from 15 churches in Seberang Prai and George Town will entertain guests at the event, themed ‘Love, Peace and Joy To All’ from 6.30pm to 10pm.

The various churches will present carols, songs, dances and sketches with Christmas theme.
The event is jointly organised by the state government and the Christian Federation of Malaysia, which comprises the Roman Catholic Church, the Council of Churches of Malaysia and the National Evangelical Christian Fellowship Malaysia.

Its organising secretary Pastor Samuel Hari said this was the first year the event was held on the mainland.
The event had been held at Fort Cornwallis on the island for the last three years.

“The state government and the committee felt that it was only fair to hold this year’s Christmas Open House in Seberang Prai to enable residents there to join in the celebrations,” he said on Tuesday.

Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng would grace the event, while state executive councillors, elected representatives, Members of Parliament and community leaders are also expected to be present.

He said a variety of Indian, Chinese and Malay food and drinks would be served at the event.

Thousands make beeline to church in Bukit Mertajam for annual pilgrimage


MORE than 100,000 people are expected to attend the annual St Anne’s Feast celebrations in Bukit Mertajam this weekend 30-July-2011 where the highlight would be a candlelight procession around the church grounds.

Most of the pilgrims would likely participate in the procession after the 8pm evening mass.
The 10-day ‘My Family, My Life’ feast will end this Sunday.
  

In the past seven days, the sanctuary of the Church of St Anne along Jalan Kulim has been a magnet for pilgrims by the thousands.

They came to pray, make vows and give thanks to the patron saint, the grandmother of Jesus Christ.
Pilgrims who have had their vows fulfilled after praying to St Anne, returned to the 165-year-old shrine this year to offer flowers and other gifts as thanksgiving.

Altar boys bearing crosses, light bearers and flower girls accompanied the statues as the crowd sang religious hymns.
The adoration of the blessed sacrament and healing for the sick was also conducted by priests yesterday.
Two siblings from Sumatra, Indonesia, — Elisabeth Alam Shah, 45, a housewife, and her sister Emilia Alam Shah, 40 — have been attending the feast for the last three years but this is the first time that they came earlier to attend mass on St Anne’s birthday.
The siblings who arrived in Penang by flight on Monday, are returning tomorrow.
  
An Australian couple who only wanted to be known as Derek and his wife Sherry, both aged 45, from Melbourne, said they were delighted to have attended the celebration.
They said that this is their fourth trip for the celebrations and plan to make a trip annually.
“I have a strong belief in God and I believe that medicine alone will not cure sickness. It is our faith.”
According to Derek, he was in serious pain when he walked up the flight of church stairs.
Derek, who was on crutches, did not specify his ailment but said that he felt relief when he came down after praying to St Anne.
S. Belvin, 30, and his fiancee S. Alinda, also 30, from Kepong, Kuala Lumpur, said they came to pray to St Anne for their wedding, which is slated for Sept 1.

For further information about the feast, call the church at 04-5386405 or visit its online portal at www.stannebm.org.
