Nitesh Bhalerao VIRAR, SEPTEMBER 29, 2008: On September 21, the Teens Group of Resurrection Parish, Virar had their monthly meeting. There were about 25 youngsters present for this meet which began at 1.30 pm and was held in the parish hall. The primary aim of the meet was to get the teens together and 
to make them aware of those basic values which are critically important in our lives. The meet started with a short prayer followed by an action song and the teen anthem. The teens were divided into three groups and each group selected its own leader. Three ‘value games’ were then conducted, each game helped to highlight a certain set of values. The first game taught the teens the importance of team work, coordination, time management and the role of a leader. The second game made the youngsters aware how competitive the world has become, and how this has led to the growth of self-centeredness and selfishness. The third game focused on recognizing one’s potential, setting goals for oneself and achieving these goals. After these games, each group was asked to prepare a skit highlighting one value. The groups came up with some excellent skits that presented different moral values in a very creative fashion. The meet came to a close with Fr. Blany Pinto and Fr. Edwin Colaco presenting a trophy to the ‘Teen of the Month’.
