The Agape Village at Toa Payoh Lorong 6 is the social services center that hosts the Singapore Catholic Church’s social services. Occasionally the halls and meeting rooms are used for Christ-centered activities that underpin the motivation and spirituality that is the driving behind the social services that is offered to all those in need, regardless of races and religious affiliations.
Away from the hustle and bustle, the rooftop offers a quiet place for reflection and contemplation. After a short tropical thunderstorm, it is refreshed and vital, and offers a rare glimpse of the tropical urban roof-top garden that home-owners aspire constantly to ‘own’.
The Rooftop Garden at Agape Village thus begs the recurring existential question of whether we need to ‘own’ any of these things to truly savor the moment whenever it presents itself.
