My Journey Against Ignorance

Have you ever seen children selling Sampaguitas around the church, children begging on the street while you’re stuck on traffic or simply seeing children play bare feet under the heat of the sun? Well they are part of the youth that will hopefully make a difference for the better.

Well, let’s start with this quote by our country’s national hero Dr. Jose Rizal, from his poem “A la juventud Filipina” written in 1879.

“The youth is the hope of our Fatherland.” - Jose Rizal

He died fighting and believing that there is still hope for our county. For him the children are the one that we are supposed to focus on, the children of our tomorrow. But unfortunately a lot of children right now are having a great difficulty against poverty. According to United Nation Children’s Fund or known as UNICEF, an influential organization that promotes a better world for every child in this planet, that 44% of children ranging from 0-15 on 2006 in the Philippines are living in poverty. They are deprived from food, sanitation, water, shelter, education and information, the education that every child should have and the information to let them be aware of what is happening to the world that is revolving around them.

I emphasized on education and information because both of them are linked up to what bothers me the most, which is ignorance. Since children is the hope of our future, we and my fellow advocates found an NGO named Tuloy Foundation, an organization that provides residential care and service to the homeless and disadvantage children, they also have some education program and recreational program where we can help. We also found a person suggested by our professor, a willing citizen to educate a rightful student by paying for his education where we recommended this NGO.

I also found and joined another organization within the grounds of De La Salle University, Manila named Lasallian Youth Religious Educators or known as LYRE. They educate children around manila, a group that negotiates with other public schools and encourage them to have a catechises session with their youthful educators from La Salle. But before the catechesis starts the Chatechist must be trained well and have first a demo on what they will do. They also thought us some tips on being an efficient educator, especially for children since the usually have a short attention span.

Thru that I have satisfied my worries and helped the youth. I might not make a big difference right now but at least I have done something to help others and influenced them.

Live Jesus in Our |Hearts, Forever!

Catholic friends!

so the Young Adult ministry at my parish is dying, slowly. The lady they hired to coordinate it is a 70 year old ex-nun, BUT she is no longer able to do it SOOOO the spot is open. I asked Father if he would hire me and he said no BUT Candice (our youth minister and my boss) said if I get a good enough game plan he might consider bringing me on! this would be HUGE for me experience-wise so when I move on to bigger and better things I'll have some experience. plus I would still continue to help out YM SO DOUBLE YAY. 

but yeah, does your parish have a YA ministry? if so, what kinds of things do you guys do? bible study, theology on tap? let me know so Candice and I can start planning. I feel like the college kids get overlooked in my parish since the median age is like 90. we need something.

1. Lord's Day

Question 1.

What is thy only comfort in life and death?

Answer.

That I with body and soul, both in life and death, (a)

am not my own, (b)

but belong unto my faithful Saviour Jesus Christ; (c)

who, with his precious blood, has fully satisfied for all my sins, (d)

and delivered me from all the power of the devil; (e)

and so preserves me (f)

that without the will of my heavenly Father, not a hair can fall from my head; (g)

yea, that all things must be subservient to my salvation, (h)

and therefore, by his Holy Spirit, He also assures me of eternal life, (i)

and makes me sincerely willing and ready, henceforth, to live unto him. (j)
