Pope to Young People: God loves you, the Church needs you By Seàn-Patrick Love
“Christ is alive and He wants you to be alive!” “The Church needs your momentum, your intui ons, your faith”, writes Pope Francis”. “And when you arrive where we have not yet reached, have the pa ence to wait for us”. Pope Francis’ message is addressed not only to young people, but also to “the en re People of God”, on the theme of “Young People, the Faith and Voca onal Dis-cernment” on March 25, 2019 and he divides his reflec ons into nine chapters. THIRD AND FINAL PART
Chapter 7: Youth Ministry Youth ministry is the focus of Chapter seven. According to Pope Francis, youth ministry should be “flexible”, an opportunity to “journey together”. Young people are moved by “the grammar of love”, he says”, “not by being preached at”. The Pope stresses the need to iden fy “new approaches” that are crea ve and even daring. The arts, sports, and care for the environment”, are all areas of posi ve pastoral development, he writes.
Chapter 8: Voca on Responding to our voca on means fostering and developing “all that we are”, says Pope Francis in Chapter eight. This may find expression in Holy Matrimony, he writes, where “true love is passionate” and sexuality has two purposes: “to love and to generate life”. But the Pope also challenges young people to consider “the voca on to special consecra on” and not to “dismiss the possibility” of devo ng themselves to God.
Chapter 9: Discernment In the final Chapter of the Exhorta on, Pope Francis reminds us that: “Without the wisdom of discernment, we can easily become prey to every passing trend”. A voca on is a gi , but it is also demanding, he writes. In order to enjoy the gi s of God, “we have to be ready to take risks”.
The Pope’s final words in the document are an implicit challenge to take such risks: “Dear young people”, concludes Pope Francis, “my joyful hope is to see you keep running the race before you, outstripping all those who are slow or afraid!”

Human Concerns Back Pack Ministry A HEARTFELT THANK YOU to all parishioners who
have so generously brought food for the 12 children backpacks we filled during the school year. The
food was packed and delivered to the elementary school weekly. Many children have some food
provided during the week at school, this was to de them over the weekend. Backpacks allow the
children to remain anonymous. Hungry children have poorer test scores, so thank you for spreading
God’s love and care to them. Special thanks to the adults and teens who packed, twice a month, and to the faithful driver who then
delivered the packages each week!!!
