SAKILAN DESA, Sabah: A Programme of Love, themed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is his name was held at the Chapel of St John the Baptist, Sekilan Desa October 7-8. It was attended by 36 youths from around the Sakilan Desa area as well as from the Big Family Community of Indonesia (KBKI).

This programme, to strengthen friendships amongst the youth, was organised through the initative of the youths of the Village of Sakilan led by Paul Kopong. It was also a way for them to recognise Jesus, His Mother, Mary, as well as their own ancestors.

Various activities and sessions were conducted. There were Taize prayers, group-sharing, personal reflection, group activities and Outdoor games.

Who is the Lord Jesus for me? was conducted by Sr Lilian Unsoh FSIC, Assistant Secretary and Youth Advisor of the Sandakan Diocese. The topic for the second session was Who is Mother Mary? by Maria Fatimah, a member of the laity who serves the Big Family Community of Indonesia. The third session, Church is a calling, Church is apostolic was given by Anna Teresa. In this third session, Anna took the opportunity to remind the young people not to forget their roots and their identity which is to be appreciated as a gift from God. Through this programme, the body and the soul of the participants can be refreshed and strengthened. In addition, this will enable the youth to build their self-confidence through the sessions and activities.

We are happy to note the positive support and acceptance given to the programme by the youth of Sakilan Village Chapel. We hope this programme will continue so that the formation of faith for the young can be enhanced and friendships made stronger. -- Newsupdatedospo
