what about IT YOUTH?
Sometimes, it is in the hassles of high school life that we lose ourselves; that we lose sight of the vital things in life. As students, we believe that grades are everything, that these capital letters dictate who we are and what role we will play in society. That a night spent toiling over homework is a night well spent. That coffee and sugar are the only essential fuels for living…
That God could wait, that service is a burden.Looking back, we may have been unable to effectively publicize these events because by the end of the school year, less than twenty-eight members attended the overnight camp held at St. Pedro Poveda College. However, this did nothing to lower our morale. It was during this camp that we members were truly able to bond as we learned more about the Teresian Association, its purpose, as well as the key persons in its formation, like St. Pedro Poveda, Blessed Victoria Diez, and Josefa Segovia. The night was spent dancing, singing, playing games, sharing meals, praying, and falling asleep together. The morning was spent waking up and bearing witness to a beautiful sunrise. We were small in number, but deep in our hearts we knew that IT Youth was not going anywhere; it was here to stay. And fortunately, it did!
Come the next school year, we once again invited the community to join us in our mission. This time, application forms were given out to let people understand that not all people could be members of IT Youth, but only those who were willing to commit. It was quite a surprise for us to find over a hundred new aspirants attending the first meeting of the school year. Perhaps it was through word of mouth that they found out how fun IT Youth can be, or perhaps they had discovered a personal drive to be more involved in the community. Those reasons did not matter, though. What mattered was that we had grown in number. With more hands ready to help, we could actually get somewhere.
