FEBRUARY 2016 CIRCULAR LETTER

  INTRODUCTION

 We welcome you to the month of February, it is our heart desire that you experience exceptional love and peace and be inspired to promote same for a better society. We wish you a pleasant feast of St. Valentine come 14th February; we encourage you to pray for the Love of Christ to grow in the heart of every man and woman. This month also ushers in the Lenten season which begins on the Ash Wednesday 10^th of Feb. 2016. It is a season of spiritual cleansing and renewal, it prepares us for Easter, the greatest feast of the liturgical year. The most important thing that can happen to us during lent is that our friendship with God, our personal knowledge of God’s love for us would be strengthened. We are to seek ways to reconcile our relationship with God and draw closer to Him, through prayer, fasting and almsgiving. The special invitation is to “Repent and believe the Gospel”. We wish you a reflective Lenten season.  

  

PRESIDENTS NEW MONTH MESSAGE

I wish to welcome you all to the month of February, a month of love and special evangelization. In this month, we are called to show love through evangelizing the world in the student’s milieu.

The need for evangelization cannot be over emphasized. God the father in His loving mercy and kindness sent His SON to redeem the world and reconcile humanity to Him so that no soul would be lost; this is because of His love for us. So in the missionary and evangelization progression, Christ mandated His disciples to take the message to the ends of the earth.

The missionary mandate was not intended to end with the apostles, it continues from the apostolic era through the early church, the medieval times to the present day. Besides it is not intended to end with you and me, it is rather ordained and destined by God to continue in every generation, so we all are called to be evangelists in this era of new evangelization.

Finally I wish to appreciate all YCSers who stood by me during my trying period. God bless you all.

Happy New Month
