BIS # 1186 VOCATION CAMP HELD AT JYOTI

Richard D’Silva sdb JYOTI, NOVEMBER 15, 2008: In a joint venture, to foster workers in the Lord’s vineyard the ‘Bosco Way’, the Salesians and Salesian Sisters of the Vasai-Uttan region conducted a Vocation Camp on October 28-29, 2008 at Our Lady of Light Church, Jyoti. Fifty-five boys and girls from Uttan and two boys from Gass attended the camp. After a set of ice breakers that helped the children mingle with one another and feel at home, there were input sessions by Fr. Gregory D’Cunha, Fr. Richard D’Silva, Sr. Monica, Sr. Jaya and Sr. Justina. It was explained to the children what it means to dream and to follow a ‘dreamer’ in the person of St. John Bosco. The campers appreciated the Salesian charism and showed an eagerness to follow this religious way of life.
