Rise Up, God’s Masterpiece
A remarkable theme befitting the National Oblate Youth Encounter in training Oblate Youth Leaders and Animators in Youth Mental Health Accompaniment headed by the Director of the Youth and Family Center of the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate, Fr. Yoniz Beley OMI, and his team of esteemed resource speakers.
The National Oblate Youth Encounter, dubbed as NOYE, began with the arrival of the delegates representing the parishes and mission stations of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate on the 27th of July 2023 with a total of 130 participants. The official start of the event began the next day, 28th of July, with an early celebration of the Holy Eucharist presided by the Provincial Superior of the Oblates of Mary Immaculate Philippine Province, Fr. Gerry Gamaliel delos Reyes, OMI, concelebrated with other Oblate priests. A renewed Oblate Cross was also blessed during the celebration.
The content of the event centered around the mental health of the youth with workshops that will enable these young leaders in accompanying their fellow youth in their journeys. A total of nine (9) days was the duration of the event and ended on the 4th of August 2023.
Let us pray for these Youth Leaders and Animators in their voyage in accompanying their fellow youth with special regards to each and everyone’s mental health. Let us also pray for the Youth and Family Center with it’s facilitators and resource speakers and it’s director as well that in their ministry in fulfilling their mission of bringing out the best of joys and hopes in every youth and family.
