Way Of Holiness

The topic of the afternoon was around the theme of seeking for truth. This was the first WoH gathering and participants quickly realized that this was different from other events that they had attended. They each received an invitation to embark on the Way of Holiness, a journey to seek the truth in their lives.

The young people were challenged to have the “courage to face the truth” as seen in the movie “Wonder woman 1984.” Participation in an interesting obstacle course asked them to examine their own journeys, questions and receptivity to help along the way.

They were asked to relook at the questions and doubts of St. Thomas, identifying his deeper questions for Jesus. During adoration, they identified their own deeper questions to bring to the Lord.

The afternoon ended with great food, a bonfire and s’mores. The three hours flew by with good faith conversations, fellowship and food!

There are plans for the WoH program to continue every 2 months over the next year focusing on different themes and activities that are relevant to young people. In the future, there are plans for a volunteer outreach, social gathering, retreat and support of external resources. More info will be made available in the months to come.

The Way of Holiness is a Jesus Youth initiative in the parish with support and collaboration from the CCD program. If you are interested in supporting or helping for future events, please contact Roger and Jilu Chengat at wayofholiness@smcboston.org. Please keep this initiative in your prayers!
