“This life begins with a personal, loving encounter with Jesus and continues as they grow in a joyful spirituality within a community of like-minded friends,” said Cardinal D’Rozario.
"It's true that you'll encounter a lot of challenges, just like Jesus did, but you can't give up. Justice- and peace-loving people never support injustice and disturbance," said Bishop Gervas.
More than 530 youths from the eight dioceses of Bangladesh participated in the National Youth Day pilgrimage with the theme “Mary arose and went with Haste” (Luke 1:39).
The activity, initiated by the diocesan commission for the clergy and the religious, aims at promoting ongoing formation programs for priests and religious brothers and nuns, and to foster vocations.
"We offer our children for the work of God in His vineyard,” said Bishop Gervas Rozario of Rajshahi in his homily during the feast day of the Presentation of the Lord celebration.
