April Summary

            There were over 500 Young Adults at the 11th Annual OYA Conference,

“ 2001: A Faith Odyssey: Encountering God in Daily Life”. There was an opportunity to attend 3 workshops, be part of a morning meditative prayer service, hear a speech by keynote speaker Peter Lynch (Vice Chairman of Fidelity Management & Research Company), partake in a Mass offered by his Eminence Cardinal Bernard Law and even attend a Dance at night. The day was spiritually enlightening & very enriching. On the first Friday in April, Father Paul Berube led us in the Stations of the Cross & we enjoyed a bite to eat following that service.
