Tomorrow Fai Fai and the rest of the team will be on their way to Sydney, where they will take part in World Youth Day 2008.

For the past months Fai Fai, being one of the coordinators, has taken part in organizing and conducting workshops and seminars preparing the young members for the event. It being her first experience in helping to coordinate an activity of international significance, she has devoted a lot of time and effort to the preparation work. Now what is left is packing up for the 17-day tour. Warm clothes are necessary as it is winter in Australia and they will have to spend at least one night in the open air. The problem is that they cannot carry more than what a backpack can hold as they are occasionally obliged to travel on foot for hours. It is thus going to be a great challenge to young people accustomed to material convenience and to well being taken care of.

But it is also an experience well worth all the discomfort and difficulties. In the first place, they are going to meet hundreds of thousands of youngsters from all over the world. They can thus benefit from multi-cultural enrichment, making happy memories with people whose paths would never cross theirs otherwise. Most importantly, they are going to attend a valley mass conducted by Pope Benedict XVI, who will speak to the throng of an estimated 225,000 pilgrims including young adults, priests and deacons. All in all, it’s said to be a microcosm of what life is with Jesus Christ, thus a once-in-a-lifetime experience to all craving for the Lord.

This year’s theme is “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you will be my witnesses to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8). I pray that the Holy Spirit will strengthen the faith of these young pilgrims and enlighten their minds with innovative ideas so that they will be able to contribute more to the development of Christian work when they return to Macau.

Best wishes to you all, young pilgrims! Plain sailing all the way!

    祝令千金一切順利。我的侄女也有參加此次世青活動。為年青教友來說,這個機會十分難得;教會正好藉此給青年人打打氣。

    In her messages sent home, my daughter talks about the difficulties of the pilgrim tour. It's the first time in her life she's experienced such bitterness. But she expresses joy, too. It's an experience these young people, your niece included, will  remember for the rest of their lives.

    夢夢很久沒有來探望啦!

    至於“盤龍峽之遊”有一些補充︰

    夢夢對“'07年盤龍峽之遊”評分會偏高一點。因為有天時,當天的天氣酷熱,但還可以挺得住…有地利,雖然看似蜿蜒曲折的棧道,走起來還可以輕鬆地應付…有人和,同行的團友互相照應,嘻嘻哈哈的重新拾起童心…是一次值得懷緬的旅程!

    祝有一個愉快的假期!

    Glad to hear from you again, 夢夢. I've seen the place in TV commercials promoting the 'Miss Hong Kong Beauty Pageant'. It is found to have very attractive scenery. I've also heard of the long bus journey involved. But as you say, it all depends on the people we travel with. Thanks for the information. I wish you a happy time, too.
