Growing Up in Service

Yeah! My 2009 had ended so good and so right! Why? It ended with a youth camp, me & Loriza as the Team Leaders. Weeeh. It was our first time to be the team leader so it was hard for us at first.
-----------------------

It's good to see that this youth camp was successful in spite of many challenges we faced before this was pushed through. YFCs in our chapter became so inactive after so many years. And now, after I had joined to YFC, our couple coordinator had assigned me as the Chapter Head of YFCs in Naic. It was hard for me at first, because I was still young that time and I don't know much about YFC. But then, I tried my best to be the Chapter Head. I read all the YFC Manuals so that I can gather informations about Youth Camps, Covenant, HouseHolds, YCTP, HHTP, 100%, GA, and many many more.

One month after, YFC Cavite had their YFC Community Based Conference. I attended this conference and there, I met Tito Joey. Without knowing that he is the provincial coordinator of YFC High School Based. And and there, he asked me if I want to have YFC as an official club in our school; of course I answered 'yes. After this Community Based Conference, I may say that my service in YFC;my service to God, started to grow.

YFC-Naic;Community Based

As far as I can remember, we had our first youth camp in our chapter last May 20-21,2009. I was already the chapter head that time. I find it difficult to have a 3-Day Youth Camp so I prefer to have it 2 days. The former chapter head of YFC Naic helped me plan this first youth camp. She called for a Mission Team(YFCs from diff. places) from Bailen and Mendez. Mission Team is needed because service teams were very few.

Woooh! In that youth camp, we were able to gather 29 participants. But then, like what many are saying,"Many are called but few are chosen..", only 8 of them became active in our service in YFC. I can still name them; Zyrex, Justin, Eunika, Chery, Rikki Mae Ate Camz, Ate Chami, and Chelsea. And there, after that youth camp, we started to build a new YFC Naic. Yes, we started our journey in YFC when we are just, i think, we're only 15+.
Emer, Arci, Ervin, Irah, Lara, Nique and the 8 newly graduates.

YFC-High School Based CNSHS

waaaaah!! As far as I know, it took 3 months before YFC was considered an official club in our school. Argh. From the community based YFC in Naic, Me, with the help of kuya Peeboy and Tito Joey introduced this YFC in our school. Ma'am De Vera asked so many questions about what YFC is & asked so many requirements like DepEd memo, & the like. It was difficult for me to work that our before. Tito Joey was living in Bacoor & kuya Peeboy was college, so I was the only one mobilizing in our school. But then, It's good to feel and to see the result of your hard work. YFC was then signed as an official club in our school.

It's good to know that from the 8 active newly graduates from the community based, 4 were presently studying in CNSHS. They were Rikki Mae, Justin, Zyrex, and Chelsea. And there, I gathered them all, I searched for students who were member of YFC. Then, I was able to meet Stanford and Zeus. After that, I talked to them and had our appointing of officers. It's good to know that our Club adviser for this year was Ma'am May for I know that Ma'am May is industrious and is very dedicated to her every work.

After so many months of submitting a youth camp proposal to Ma'am De Vera, at last! We had our very first youth camp on our school last November 29-30 as far as I can remember. On that youth camp, we were able to produce 47 new YFC Members of our High School Based in our school. I can say that it was a success! Bring God's High to Schools!!!

Going Back.. YFC-Naic;Community Based

Going back to the YFC on our chapter, we had our 2nd youth camp, just recently last December 28-30, 2009, and we were able to gather 25 participants. It's good to see that from the newly graduate YFCs in our school, almost 20+ of them volunteered to be one of the service teams in the camp. Woooh. It was so good. I can see that they really are growing in the service even though they are still newly graduates, they really are willing to serve Lord, God. n_n

During the camp... ahmm.. Me and Loriza were feeling weird. Starting from the binding & casting of the venue, we can both feel that there is something on the venue that hinders us to pursue the camp. But then, we do not mind that thing. ......
..When we're going to have the POS or the Pray-Over Session, I don't know why but I'm really feeling weird. The participants are not standing/committing theirselves to God even though I can see them still awake. The speaker told them to stand if they are ready to accept Jesus Christ to their lives, but then, it took so long before they stood up. I can see them awake and listening to the speaker. But they are just listening. They do not do what the speaker wanted them to do.

whew.. It's a very long and weird story. I will not post the whole story here for it was very long and it's dificult for me to type it. Maybe, i'll just tell the story if you have time(Ma'am May).. =)


Wooooh!! Yeah! And during talks 3 & 5, I was the one who did the reflection. I told them stories and I think, they were inspired. I can see them all crying. Good thing that they cried to my reflection.. hehe.. Because this was my first time. >.<

Waaaah!! I think this blog entry is long enough. Maybe i'll just continue this next time. =)

See 'you! ^__^
