The theme of the afternoon was \u2018Say Yes to God\u2019, where we engaged in group discussions, prayer and dinner. There was also a guest speaker, Fr Steve Drum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The icebreaker of the night was to organise a dinner date with a partner, where we had to respond with \u2018yes, but\u2019 and \u2018yes, and\u2019 responses. Father Steve facilitated a guided meditation &#8211; Lectio Divina &#8211; on the Annunciation. In table groups, we discussed questions on our relationship with God. One of the questions was, \u2018Are there any instances where an individual may not want to say yes to God?\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We would like to thank Ms Younan and Mr Ronchetti from Holy Cross College, who helped to organise this very fun event. We thank Miss Vu, Miss Kleist and Ms Ockert for their support in the afternoon. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This event was an inspiring experience and we will definitely attend again.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"highlight\" style=\"text-align: left\"><i style=\"font-size: 1.4rem\"><em>Alyssa Pirrello, Isabelle Mourani and Katelyn Lopes<\/em><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"highlight\" style=\"text-align: left\"><i style=\"font-size: 1.4rem\"><em>Year 11 students<\/em><\/i><\/div>\n<p>This article on College life meets The Archbishop&#8217;s Charter for Catholic Schools &#8211; Charter #6 &amp; #8<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fifteen girls from Years 10, 11 and 12 made their way to Holy Cross College to attend a Youth Afternoon on 25 March&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","article_category":[7],"article_tag":[],"class_list":["post-3093","article","type-article","status-publish","hentry","article_category-around-the-college"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/3093","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3093"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3093"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"article_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_category?post=3093"},{"taxonomy":"article_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mscw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_tag?post=3093"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
