What started as a gathering of young people from different parishes quickly became a family united by faith, laughter, and shared experiences. From exciting team-building activities that tested our trust and teamwork to meaningful discussions during the Youth Orientation Program, every moment became an opportunity to learn, grow, and strengthen our commitment to God and His Church.
Together, we explored the rich history of the Iglesia Filipina Independiente and YIFI, reflected on our identity as church youth, and learned more about our responsibilities as members of the organization. More importantly, we discovered that being a YIFI member is not only about knowing our history but also about living out our faith through service and love for others.
As it is written in ๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ ๐ฐ:๐ต, "๐๐ธ๐ฐ ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ต๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ, ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ค๐ข๐ถ๐ด๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ฉ๐ข๐ท๐ฆ ๐ข ๐จ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฅ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ธ๐ข๐ณ๐ฅ ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ช๐ณ ๐ต๐ฐ๐ช๐ญ."
This camp reminded us that we are stronger when we journey together. Every cheer during the games, every lesson shared during the sessions, every meal, every prayer, and every conversation became a reminder that God continues to work through community.
In a time when many young people struggle with uncertainty, distractions, and challenges, gatherings like this remind us that we are never alone. We have a Church that walks with us, leaders who guide us, friends who support us, and a God who continues to call us to something greater.
To our clergy, facilitators, youth leaders, volunteers, and especially Minsapinit Parish for warmly welcoming us throughout the camp, thank you for helping create a safe space where faith could grow and friendships could flourish. ๐
The camp may have ended, but the mission continues. May the lessons we learned, the friendships we built, and the memories we shared inspire us to continue answering God's call as young people of faith.
