The Eucharist Celebration was attended by many and was beautifully animated by the Holy Cross Youths.
Holy Cross Cathedral Parish Youth Chaplain Fr Misiwasi told Catholic Communication that it is important to involve youths in programs that will help them in their formation to become better individuals.
Fr Misiwasi stated that most times youths are neglected and this program aims to equip them with positive attitudes and good morals so that when they go back to their communities they feel like they belong in a community of love and care.
The Youth Camp concluded on Pentecost Sunday with mass celebrated by Fr Mark Misiwasi and concelebrated by the Director of Don Bosco Technical Institute Fr. John to commemorate the Pentecost Solemnity.
During his homily, Fr Mark reminded the parishioners to be witnesses of Christ and urged everyone to allow the power of the Holy Spirit to Lead them.
