Grace abounds

The epitome of Grace and Joy I have hope Though I have nowhere to go or turn towards I know  That Grace has taken away my shame That Grace has rescued me from my famine That Grace has reconciled me with himself That the process is in a continuum  And so May I never complain but plan May I not be tempted to withdraw For Grace is sufficient for me to stand poised May I be still and know that hope grows That I shall rise anytime I fall  Even if all odds are against me I don’t want to be lost May grace help me find home  Knowing that my father’s arms are widespread Ready to embrace me  Peace and love shall bind us Truthfully, I do not deserve but grace came in Only the hills shall I lift up my eyes to If all creation continues to worship, I can’t stop either Let my life reflect your goodness and mercy Though I don’t know how I am going to survive the days ahead Yet, someway somehow, these miracles engulf me I'm s...

MEETING POPE FRANCIS: MY ‘CHRISTUS VIVIT’ EXPERIENCE

The Lord is our shepherd and we are blessed to be under His watch. I was a pilgrim to the Vatican City while representing Ghana Catholic Bishops’ Conference (GCBC) and the Ghana National Catholic Youth Council (GHANCYC) as a delegate at the 11 th International Youth Forum. Like any youth, I am interested in the Church and the love it shares with the various communities around the world. I will share some thoughts and experiences with you. Victor among the delegate during one of the sessions In the month of June 2019, the Universal Church led by the Dicastery of Life, Family and Youth at the Vatican organized the 11 th  International Youth Forum dubbed  “Youth in action in a synodal Church” .

Transition

The aftermath of the actions we took when we were young, with strong faith, hope, and determination. The decisions we made when we still believed those wild dreams would someday become realities, and oh! they did but not all because, Some faded out silently, some dried up in the desert, others got soaked and settled  at the bottom of the deep blue sea, oops!! Nevertheless, we keep on chasing after those we can, so it becomes a reality. Given the prospects, we have come far enough to give up and we have much more  to cover distance beyond the reach of the eye. Oh! Yes, we can! Marking time on a spotless spot is meaningless So we’re marching on from the right spot to greater heights. Don't throw in the towel in those trying moments, they come once in a while. Work towards success and make it happen. Take cues from how you made it this far, affirm your grounds and carry on.  Worry not because it does not take away tomorrow's trouble but today's ...

International Movement of Catholic Students (IMCS) PAX ROMANA,Ghana Federation

Giving the giver that gives you peace and love from the bosom of the size-less heart all the praise  We are matching up to the ends of the earth to make sure that our task of discipleship really goes aboard; this is the title of our hymn “LIBERATION FOR PEACE”    The Holy Spirit knows boundaries; he cannot be limited in his own jurisdiction. So moving on to proclaim that which we have been taught by the teacher, we shall spearhead the action and affirm someday to come “THAT CHRIST MAY BE IN ALL” Not forgetting to promote the student Apostolate among students in higher education, in the Church’s mission and in the world; we came into existence to continue preaching and teaching the word that have life in itself to manifest wonderful and marvelous things according to the Will of the creator, Our Father... Moreover we recognize and work with all concerned men and women for joint action and reflection leading to a more just and equitable social order a...
