On the 7th of February we had a youth program for youth from five parishes from 10.30 am to 4.30 pm. 35 youth- 6 from San Salvador Church, Honnavar, 7 from St Sebastian’s Church, Matadakeri, 1 from St. Francis Xavier’s Church, Chandavar, 9 from Infant Jesus Church, Prabhat Nagar and 12 from St. Pedro Poveda Church, Shantinagar participated.
This session was planned and prepared by Ines, Elizabeth, Nancy, Benna, Vanita and Supriya. We began by registration which was followed by a short welcome and warming up games. A serious session on the topic “Choices in Life” was conducted by Ines with the help of Benna and Elizabeth for translation and for readings. After the session there was a group discussion and then sharing. We then moved to the chapel for a short prayer prepared by Vanita, Supriya and Nancy.
At 2 pm we had lunch together which was prepared by Angeline and Remendin aunty. Over lunch Elizabeth explained to the youth about the Teresian Assocation and introduced the Core and ACIT, Benna and Clodagh were present from ACIT.
After lunch we had a fancy dress competition using one’s own creativity with only newspaper and pins. It was excellent and the youth enjoyed. We ended the session with an action song taught by Elizabeth and a quick evaluation and suggestions. At 4 pm we gathered for tea, celebrating the birthdays of two of the youth present. All the groups suggested to extend to more parishes and to have more sessions like this especially during the holidays. We also mentioned to them about the youth camp in May 2010.
