Encounters With God Youth Afternoon

We welcomed Year 11 and 12 students from Marist College Eastwood, Holy Cross College Ryde and Domremy College Five Dock to MSCW on Friday, 18 June for a Youth Afternoon on the theme ‘Encounters with God’.

Students participated in activities such as icebreaker games and prayer, and had the privilege of hearing from a range of inspiring speakers. The first, Mrs Ivanka Rancic, SCS Education Officer, spoke about her relationship with her faith and how she aims to live out God’s mission through her work as an educator. Father Steve and Father Daniel spoke about their ‘calling’ to their priestly vocation. Ms Cheryl Fernadez, SCS Education Officer, spoke about how the passing of her father provided her the opportunity to put her faith into action.

Overall, the Youth Afternoon was an excellent way to connect with other local Catholic schools and empower us to walk in the light of Christ; whilst reminding ourselves each day that ‘we are beautiful, we are kind, and we are smart!’
