Re: Vigil for Christina - Thank You

WOW. I can't believe that what was supposed to be our little MYR prayer meeting turned into such a HUGE thing. We would like to thank PRINCE OF CATHOLIC CHURCH for a huge helping hand at. Thank you, especially, to all of Christina's family members, friends, and even all the strangers for coming to pray for her safe return. To think, that one person could bring us together in prayer. Remember Talk 1 at your Youth For Christ retreat? "God's love and His Plan for Us".

If you missed the vigil, here is a link that will give you the gist of what happened at the Vigil:
Vigil @ Prince of Peace Catholic Church

St. Bernadette's, the charity wherein Christina is employed in the daycare's Best Start Program, also held a vigil at St. Jude's Academy of the Arts at Weston Rd. and Sheppard Avenue West:

MYR Prayer Vigil

MYR Prayer Meeting
Who:Markham York Region
What are you staying for: The Rosary, the Novena, the Mass, the Benediction
Where: Prince of Peace Catholic Church (Alton Towers/McCowan)
When: Wednesday, August 15, 2007 at 6:15PM (Be on time, please)
Why: Vigil for Christina Calayca

Whether you know Christina or not, we would like you to pray for our fellow YFC member. You may have seen her at your camp, or at events. She was the Chapterhead of Downtown, and is a very strong leader in our community. She went missing Monday, August 6, 2007 on a camping trip near Thunder Bay. We are praying to the Almighty God for her safe return to us. We pray for her mother, her brother, her relatives, all her friends, and especially Christina, that they may trust in the Lord, and continue to do so, now, and in the future.

This is not an official YFC event, but we will be praying for her, and you are all welcome to join us.

EDIT: August 15, 2007 is also the celebration of the Assumption of Mother Mary.

As you all know, the Eastern Conference is coming up REALLY fast. So, here's what we're going to do. Considering that Youth for Christ is a religious organization, we are going to have a prayer meeting. What....? Did you think all we did was have barbeques, beach bashes and picnics? NAWWW, DAAAWGS. lol. If you can make it to a BBQ, you can make it to a mass!
