NBVM Boleh!

Let us show our Christian love in action in supporting NBVM Parish Pastoral Center Building Project by our prayer, sharing post from this page and our generosity in contributing towards the Fund.

Take a Stand, Support and be Generous towards NBVM PPCBP




We need to pray that people (inclusive of all parishioners and ex-parishioners) will take a firm stand, support and be generous towards our NBVM Parish Pastoral Center Building Project fundraising.




O Lord, Almighty and Merciful, through the intercession of Our Blessed Mother, our Blessed Virgin Mary, we entrust ourselves to Thy Divine Majesty and implore Your loving help for a successful Parish Pastoral Center Building Project awareness and fundraising campaign. We thank you for your most generous love. Encourage us to be persons of honesty and integrity, worthy of proclaiming the Gospel, in this sacred ministry of fundraising. Give us joyful spirits, and an eagerness to engage others. Give us hopeful imagination and creative vision, recognizing generosity in even the smallest gift. Give us strong, steadfast hearts in times of discouragement. Give us trusting hearts, knowing that the fruits of labours will be realized. Give us faithful hearts, deeply committed to Your realm. Graciously hear us, O Eternal God, to You do we come, before You we stand sinful and sorrowful, enveloped in Our Lady's Maternal mantle to cover our nothingness, despise not our petitions, but in Your mercy hear and answer us. Amen

Prayer for the intercession of the patroness of our parish, Our Blessed Virgin Mary


Heavenly Father, we thank You for creating us in Your image and for sending Your Son, Who reveals the meaning of life and Who is our Redeemer. We seek to do Your will always and now during the midst of our NBVM Church Butterworth, Parish Pastoral Center Building Project. Send us Your Holy Spirit to help us to be generous stewards as we strive to fulfill with our donations the material needs of our parish. For this intention, we ask the intercession of the patroness of our parish, Our Blessed Virgin Mary. We ask all of this through Christ our Life. Amen.

Fundraising Theology ~ Henri Nouwen

Fund-raising is proclaiming what we believe in such a way that we offer other people an opportunity to participate with us in our vision and mission. Fund-raising is precisely the opposite of begging. When we seek to raise funds we are not saying, “Please, could you help us out because lately it’s been hard.” Rather, we are declaring, “We have a vision that is amazing and exciting. We are inviting you to invest yourself through the resources that God has given you— your energy, your prayers, and your money—in this work to which God has called us.”

‘Fundraising is a very rich and beautiful activity. It is a confident, joyful, and hope-filled expression of ministry. In ministering to each other, each from the riches that he or she possesses, we work together for the full coming of God’s Kingdom.’

Luke 6:38

Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you give will be the measure you get back.

NBVM Parish Pastoral Center Building Project Fundraising Campaign




Every donation counts, and it is a gift for NBVM parish that will definitely contribute to the success of our Parish Pastoral Center Building project (PPCBP). Please stand and pray with us for our Parish Pastoral Center, that it will be completed as schedule and successfully opened for use, but none of this is possible without your help. Remember, generosity is a virtue.


Spread the fundraising news, share this blog, be generous and stand with us in prayer.
Thank you and God Bless.

Matthew 18:19-20
“Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.”

2 Corinthians 9:6-8
He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must do as he has made up his mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work.

Deuteronomy 16:17
All shall give as they are able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God that he has given you.
