The Verna Parish Youth gave a warm welcome to all of us by showering flowers. This was followed by a brief introduction by Fr. Darrell telling us about the programme and the other fun activities which were planned for the day.

Before starting the programme, We spent a few quiet and prayerful moments before the Blessed Sacrament, and asked the Lord for His blessings.

The programme began with an icebreaker game and then 2 members from each parish was asked to share their experiences about being in the youth and tell us about the various activities or programmes they organized, the difficulties they faced while organizing certain events and how they manage to overcome them.

Thereafter, refreshments were served for all of us, after having some delicious snacks, our very own Steven organized a very wonderful game, where we were divided into groups along with the Verna and Bogmalo Parish Youth. The game was all about discussing the barriers which others face being in the youth and the solutions which they come up with.
