AVEC - October Sessions



5th October

The AVEC was invited to Don Bosco Parish, Baroda to be part and conduct the ‘Retreatainment’ for the senior Catechism students. Fr. Leon showed the children two movies ‘Evan Almighty’ which has its bases on understanding the will of God and ‘The Blind Side’ which speaks about Christian Charity. It was a great experience to conduct this session.



18th October

Fr. Leon Rodrigues was called to the Inter Juniorate Course (ICJ) at Bhopal, organised by the Chambery Sisters of the Central Province to help the Junior sisters have an experience of Youth Ministry. Fr. Leon organised for them personality              development sessions (since a youth minister needs to develop himself/herself first before catering to the young). He then also helped them understand the theology of Youth Ministry through fun, games, interaction and the screening of various movies.


24th October

After attending the Social Dimension Experience National    Meeting, Fr. Leon was called on to animate the brothers in    Practical Training at Don Bosco Benaulim, Goa. It was a one-and-a-half-hour session wherein Fr. Leon helped the brothers to get in touch with themselves and helped them understand that       spiritual   direction is important for ones’ growth and  development.
