HKSKH Welfare Council held its 2018-2019 annual meeting on 6 December at St James’ Church. In his speech, the officiating guest of honour, Bishop Andrew Chan of Western Kowloon, said that he was touched every time when he attended the annual meetings of the Welfare Council. He said that all members of staff pooled their abilities to provide welfare and social service as well as to transform society.

Bishop Chan said that he believed all members of staff served the needy of the society with a sense of dedication. They also manifested the spirit of consideration for others, caring for all, peace, and justice through the services they provided to the community. As a result, this spirit of mutual-care would transform society. Bishop Chan said that social work and education are somewhat similar as they both enlightened, transformed and enhanced the ethical standards of people.
