We take charge of the youths before they get confirmed when they reach SecOriginally posted by Icemoon:you forgot we need good cardinals also .. especially cardinals from Singapore.
What is catechists? Is that a fanciful name for bible study leader?
"not afraid to water down teachings in fear of reprisals" sounds very Protestant to me.
We have classes every sunday, not only focusing on the Bible but other teachings of the church like Sacrament
we go into concepts like Morality, etc -

in light of your signature. when my Sec 4's got confirmed, we held a party for them. some adults were there too. When the party ended, the place wasn't exactly in a mess.. so the adults left first. i stayed back to pack the stuff up. To my surprise, a few of them started cleaning the place up (i was gonna run away) and picking up little rubbish.Originally posted by M©+square:Not about being or sounding protestant or not.
It is evident that the teachings and confronting issues of holy living have been oppressed and indeed - watered down.
How can a church of God raise to become salt and light if she is fearful and weak?
The main function of a Church is solely onto the reliance of God.
And if a professing believer of God can leave unchanged...then...this religion is questionable.
i asked them, y?
they answered... coz it's the right thing to do.
at that moment.. i was in total shame, and yet i was beaming with pride that they said such things

I attended confirmation class before. I think that one only held when you about to reach 16.
catechism class is in my impression is sunday school for younger children? -
That's how they recruit youth catechists. Bring them in as facilitators and they'll be taking classes in no time. Good idea.Originally posted by ben1xy:my parish are trying to get the youths to come in as faciliators and stuff. pretty effective i would say -

the true test is when they step into the reality of the world and handle it with God.
