This special formation to new YFC members is conducted as a one day activity within the first 3 months of their YFC life after their Youth Camp.
After initially responding to God’s invitation during his/her Youth Camp, the

    This stage would further develop the core values of engagement and relationship building. In a sense this stage would be the branching out stage. Individuals from the core would be encouraged to engage, care for, and build relationships with their community. In this process these individuals would seek to understand and acknowledge the individuals that can be identified with the un-churched and the de-churched.…

    Escondido Christian School ( ECS ) is an amazing school, I love and am extremely lucky to be going here. However, there are some things that I think if we upgrade some things, it would make the school a little more fun from Kindergarten, all the way up to eighth grade. So, I thought of a few things that I think would be really fun. The first thing that I thought of was, I thought would be the most fun. Cheerleading was one thing that the school doesn’t have and lots of people would probably want to do it. I was thinking that we could have it for an elective, but there would also be a cheerleading team for people who really wanted to cheerlead. The team could practice after school when the sports teams would have practice and could cheerlead at games. The only problem with that is that the boys and girls both have games at the same times. So to solve that problem, the team could split up to cheer for both games, kind of like an A and B team so that they could be at both games, except neither of the cheer teams would be better than the other. Another thing is that if we want a cheerleading team, we need uniforms. Those would cost some money, but we could have one of the moms make some uniforms. Per person you would need…

    As I was born and raised in a Buddhist family, I have always followed and practiced the doctrines and beliefs of Buddhism. Buddhism has become one of the most dominant parts in my life which guides me to a fulfilled spiritual life and proper attitudes towards other beings. Nevertheless, throughout the course about world religions that I am taking, I have decided to experience some festivals and rituals in other religions as the way to get exposed to the cultural diversity of the world. Hence, for my religious service review, I have chosen to study Christianity - one of the most influential and widespread religions. Since I have a friend who is working as social volunteer in Holy Family Catholic Church (1957 Coolidge Street, San Diego, CA 92111), I decided to obtain my realistic approach to Christianity by going to a regular Sunday mass and joining in some youth activities on 11/22/09 to have a deeper and objective comprehension of Christianity.…

    God’s word always needs to be shared with everyone but more especially to the youth. God has always been a huge part of my everyday life. Finding a place where I would be able to share this joy was a priority I had. Camp Skyline was undeniably the place for that. Each night we would sit around a campfire just to hear the songs of the praises to God’s word. Voices as sweet and soft as honey would travel through the mountain air as if a bee on a summer day. Beneath that sound would be the faint crackling of the fire that blazed before us and faintly gave light to each face. On Sundays we had “Skyline Church.” Everyone was to wear pure white on this day. Upon entering church I would see girls of all ages running around in white dresses that were catered to fit each of the hundreds of girls. During those next few hours praises would be lifted and hearts would be led to God as if a lost child in…

    Chaplains kept the faith by holding on to the “be, know, do concept between the 1200s and the 1600s AD. Being a practitioner of faith meant applying the rites commanders and the papacy authorized as a mission requirement. Knowing meant priests were to have a thorough knowledge of the rites of penance, mass, final unction, and viaticum. [1] Doing simply meant conducting the appointed duties required by the papacy to the people providing a service of good for the kingdom in whole. Although the role of the chaplain became more prudent, it was also its downfall. Nonetheless, valuable lessons learned paved the way for a better chaplaincy. This paper is a review of some of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the chaplaincy.…
