“WELCOME TO THE FAMILY!” LIVE JESUS IN OUR HEARTS, FOREVER!
YOUTH FORMATION IN EAST SEPIK By Joshua Moish Our ongoing Lasallian youth Encounter Camps in the past ten years have seen many young aspiring leaders grow in taking a leadership role in the area of presenting a session, and taking the lead role in music ministry. This year, two significant events happened which show the youths at the forefront. They are: Networking with the Diocesan Youth, and their active participation in music ministry during our Commemoration of the 75th Anniversary recently.
Our three young aspiring leaders namely Lloyd, Orlando and Bernadette embraced the challenge, and accompanied by Salvatore and Maggie, headed to Burui. They briefly explained to the audience aged from 14-16, the Life Story of De La Salle, our Lasallian prayers, and the five guiding principles that governs our Lasallian Youth Ministry. They explained the Lasallian ethos of Faith in the Presence of God, how one can be of service to others and the importance of building Community. They energised the youths with some fun games which were the highlight of the day. The team of three was applauded by the organising committees and since then, we have received a lot of requests to reach out to the remote places, and share our unique Christian ministry in the Lasallian way. Due to work commitments we haven’t reached out as yet.
