Behind the Scenes at CYD: Creativity


Having experienced the love of God in a very real and tangible manner in my life, I desired to serve in CYD to spread this love that I have first received to others as well! Prepping for CYD has been a very exciting journey; the ability to evangelise and testify to God’s love through creative movement has been a very precious experience for me. I used to think that I was unable to dance and would never think of even participating in such an event, but the freedom that God has given me to praise Him through movement is something I cannot keep to myself but desire to use for the glory of God and to share with others. I hope that those coming for CYD may be open to come to know the depths of the Lord’s love for them, and that a desire may be stirred in their hearts to come to know personally who Jesus is! – Genevieve Especkerman, 24 (front right)

At first glance, we may be quick to think of the physical and natural aspect of death. Yet, the call of Christ also entails dying to self – surrendering the desires, the habits and lifestyles that prevent us from following and loving Him.

The One Thing Necessary: 3rd Sunday of Lent

If Jesus were to enter our churches today, what will He find? He would not find any cattle, sheep or doves, like in today’s gospel. But will He find our hearts noisy and distracted with our worldly concerns and thoughts?
