Who we are
Vision & Mission
Vision: A Parish community vibrant in prayer, steeped in God’s word, celebrating deeply the Sacraments and witnessing and proclaiming with enthusiasm the presence of Jesus in their midst.
Mission: To build a spirit-filled servant community, responsive to its needs and aspirations of spiritual growth. History
The Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHM) started as a chapel in 1953 to serve the Catholics of Serangoon 5th and 6th mile, and the Paya Lebar areas. In 1992, wings were added to the church which greatly increased the seating capacity to accommodate the growing parish. However, as the parish population increased over the decades to more than 6000, there was a pressing need to develop a new church building to cater to the growing Catholic population the church was serving. In 1999, the parish assembly approved plans to build a new church but insisted that the ‘kampong spirit’ of the church be retained, specifically – no high buildings. A Building Committee was promptly formed to start planning for the new church building. Separately, a Fund Raising Committee was formed to look into fund raising efforts to build the church . The whole church was developed at a cost of SGD 11.3 million and it has only one tall structure – the belfry. Feast Day
IHM celebrates the Feast Day of the Immaculate Heart of Mary yearly.

Leader Bio:
From Vietnam to Singapore via France. That is the route that brought the Immaculate Heart of Mary’s new parish priest Fr Paul Ngo Thanh Phong to our shores. Fr Paul, who took charge on Aug 1, 2020, has been in Singapore since 2007. He has served in the parishes of Holy Trinity (2007-2012), Christ the King (2014-2018) and Queen of Peace (2018-2020) as assistant parish priest. In between, from 2012, he spent two years in Taiwan learning Mandarin.
Fr Paul was born and raised in Binh Dinh, a coastal province in the south central part of Vietnam. As a young boy he served as an altar boy in his parish church and gradually found his calling. However, the government authorities allowed only 10 students every two year to join the seminary. As the young Paul waited in hope, the bishop of Nha Trang got him a scholarship in 1996 to do his seminary studies at the St. Jean-Marie Vianney Seminary in Ars, France. After six years of seminary studies he proceeded to study Biblical Theology in the Catholic Institute of Paris. A year before he completed his Masters degree at the Institute, in 2005, he was ordained a priest.
Due to government restrictions, Fr Paul could not return to Vietnam as a priest, since he was not ordained there. His desire, however, was to serve in Asia. He, therefore, joined the Paris Foreign Mission Society or MEP. He spent one year in Paris with the MEP to get to know the community better before he was posted to Singapore.
Fr Paul wants to build a Christ-centered, vibrant, evangelical and missionary community in IHM. He has a message to his parishioners: “I hope to get to know all of you better and to serve the community together with you, and to spread the love of God to everyone through the intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.”

When we stumble...
O Lord our God, Who has called us to serve You in the midst of the world's affairs, When we stumble, hold us; when we fall, lift us up. When we are hard pressed with evil, deliver us. When we turn from what is good, turn us back and bring us at last to Your glory.
