The Evangelization Apostolate of the Pathanamthitta Diocese is spearheading a series of EnChristo Teens Gatherings aimed at fostering the spiritual growth of teenagers in classes 8 to 12 across various parishes. These gatherings serve as a platform for young members of the Church to strengthen their faith and build a deeper connection with Christ.
On Sunday, 24th November 2024, the EnChristo Teens Gathering for the Ranni-Perunad Ecclesiastical District was held at the St. Mary’s Malankara Catholic Church, Mylapra. The event witnessed enthusiastic participation, with over 200 attendees, including students, teachers, and programme leaders.
The gathering featured a range of activities designed to inspire, educate, and spiritually enrich the teenagers. Sessions included interactive faith-building exercises, thought-provoking discussions, and opportunities for communal worship, all rooted in the teachings of the Syro-Malankara Catholic Church.
The programme was organised under the able guidance of the Parish Vicar, Rev. Fr. Paul Nilackal Thekethil, who provided leadership and support to ensure the event’s success. The efforts of the parish community, teachers, and volunteers were instrumental in creating an enriching and memorable experience for the participants.
These gatherings highlight the Church’s commitment to nurturing the faith of its young members, ensuring they grow into spiritually grounded individuals ready to contribute to the community. The EnChristo initiative continues to impact the lives of many teenagers, offering them a strong foundation in faith and values.
