On Sunday, 22nd June, at the Church of St. Nicholas of Tolentino in Ħal Tarxien, a special Mass was held during which three youth groups were commissioned in the name of the Christian community to embark on different experiences of a living Church abroad this summer.
The Amigos group, led for the 31st time by Fr. Mario Abela and Fr. Terence Spiteri, will be leaving Malta for Iquitos, Peru, to carry out missionary work alongside the Augustinians living in Peru, serving poor families and children.
The Camino group, composed of various educators from St. Augustine College and led by Fr. Terence, will undertake a long pilgrimage walk from Portugal to Spain. This spiritual journey offers the pilgrims an opportunity to deepen their discovery of God and others.
At the end of July, the Tagaste group will join thousands of young people from around the world to share their faith and live an experience of renewal during the Jubilee of Hope for young people. They will be accompanied by the Provincial, Fr. Leslie Gatt.
Let us continue to pray for these young people, and for all youth who are taking part in similar experiences during this time, that they may continue to discover themselves and God.
