General Secretariat for Redemptorist Youth and Vocation Ministry

A catechetical moment:
Fr. Jon Hansen, C.Ss.R., explains how batteries
(that is to say, our hearts) store energy
in order to be able to give light.

Fr. Jon Hansen, C.Ss.R., explains to Michelle Thiessen
(preparation team member) that the battery being charged
is like our heart when we receive God’s graces.

Fr. Jon Hansen, C.Ss.R., connects the batteries
to the battery charger. The batteries and charger
reflect the way we are to receive the gift of God's grace in our life
and store it up in order for it to then shine before all.
Plugging in the batteries to the solar panel
was the second stage of the symbol
which assisted in bringing out the theme, 'Plug into Christ'.

Fr. Michael Brehl, C.Ss.R., Provincial Superior
of the Redemptorists of the Edmonton-Toronto Province,
shares with the group his thoughts and reflections
in his inspiring presentation entitled:
"Christ: Relationship and Redemption".

Fr. Serafino Fiore, C.Ss.R., Vicar General of the Redemptorists
and President of the General Secretariat for RYVM,
leads the group in a process of theological reflection and integration
as the group nears the end of the Dialogue process.
Fr. Serafino also encouraged each (V) Province
to continue dialoguing and envisioning ways
to work together in mission as Redemptorists and Young Adults.
