In memory of Mrs. Cecilia Chan

The PSA is deeply saddened to inform you that Mrs. Cecilia Chan (陳紫鈺老師),
a past student in the 1950's, and teacher at our primary school from the 60's to 90's, had peacefully returned to God on 25 March 2008 due to lung cancer. 

Mrs. Chan has nurtured generations of young St. Marians throughout her three decades at the school. Her passion in teaching and her gentle manners have been inspiration to many, and the memory will always remain in our hearts.

Wreaths & Donations

Mrs. Chan has been dedicated to evangelization (spreading the good news of Christ) since her retirement.  She once said that renewal in the Holy Spirit is crucial to evangelization.  Therefore, in lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the following organizations:

1) Renewal in the Spirit Community (RIS) 聖神內更新團體 (www.ris.org.hk)

2) Diocesan Pastoral Centre for the Disabled 教區傷殘人士牧民中心 (www.dpcd.org.hk)
3) FOJP Online School of Evangelization 逾越知音網上福傳學校 (www.evschool.net)

All contributions received during the funeral will also be evenly donated among these three organizations.
