"MANY ARE CALLED, BUT FEW ARE CHOSEN"
The Catholic Youth Ministry of Zone 5 Red De Five have their zonal Recollection on August 04, 2023, in Immaculate Conception-Greenhills, Purok 10-B, Barangay Fatima, General Santos City, with the theme "Young People: You are loved, chosen, and worthy."
The zonal Recollection seeks to renew and invigorate young people, provides an opportunity for additional time spent in prayer and thought, and rekindles and develops spiritual connections.
Mrs. Razel Loctores, the first guest speaker, discusses how she made the commitment to serve God as a young girl that ultimately led to her current status as an empowered fantastic person. She has had many opportunities to inspire and motivate others because she has been an enthusiastic churchgoer from that time until now. After all, she came to the conclusion that any issue you're facing right now is merely a step toward a brighter tomorrow. The second guest speaker is Ms. Recyll Oraiz, and she discusses the importance of self-affirmation. She also underlines the importance of "a little push" in terms of how much it can affect someone's confidence. She also wished for the participants to understand that we are all loved, chosen, and worthy.
Sometimes all we need is a little push or a break from whatever we've been struggling with. Sometimes we forget that we are more than capable of what other people believe in. Sometimes we feel unvalued because we feel and believe that no one is available when we need them. This activity allows participants to feel that they are LOVED because someone believes in them. They are CHOSEN because not everyone has the same opportunities as others. They are WORTHY because they can still make a difference not only for themselves, but also for others, for their loved ones, and for the Lord.
