Charisma and Commitment in the Brasil Centro-Sul province
On Feb. 17 and 18, 35 young people from 14 different cities of the Brasil Centro-Sur province met for the annual meeting of the young Marist laity in the city of Jaraguá do Sul.
During the two days of activities, the young people met to discuss the current reality of the lay groups, whose formation process has been taking place since 2016.
Regional groups of the province presented the proposals and ideas discussed.
This material, later, will serve as the basis for the creation of a document of the lay youth, which will guide the groups.
A youth work group will be created, which will be dedicated to the creation of that document together with the province until the end of 2018.
The lay youth has many challenges, but their effort will also be great. In the end, the feeling is one of joy and union for what is to come, as affirmed by Welinton Trentin, of Joaçaba.
“I left very happy because of what we did, shared and experienced (and) I think Champagnat is happy there in heaven to see that his promise is still alive in many hearts,” he stated.
The challenges of the Young Laity are great and the effort of the young will be too.
In the end, the feeling is one of joy and union for what is to come, as affirmed by Welinton Trentin, of Joaçaba.
