Sury's New Appointment at SACCRE Youth

Dear YAM & friends,

We would like to update you all of the latest news!

YAM took part in SACCRE Elections yesterday at IHM Parish Hall, as 2 of our members, Eugene Wee and our current coordinator Suryadi, were nominated for the position of Youth Councillor for Parish based groups. The parish based groups are -- YAM (OLPS), Emmaus (St. Mary of the Angels), Encounter Youth Ministry (Risen Christ), Ignite (Holy Trinity) and Zion's Joy (IHM)); while non-parish based groups (currently comprising Living Stones Campus Outreach, Amplify Ministry, Jesus Youth and NTU Charismatic Prayer Group).This was a one-man post previously, filled by Iwan, but it has been expanded to two for the 2009-2010 term, with a new position for a second youth councillor to represent parish-based groups in SACCRE Youth.

After a time of prayer, the youth ministry leaders present yesterday elected Gerald Tham from Living Stones as the Youth Councillor for Non-Parish based groups and Sury as Youth Councillor for Parish based groups. So moving ahead, they will sit in the new SACCRE Council meetings, chaired by Peter Hung (St. Ignatius) with Jessica Francisco (Risen Christ) as Vice-Chairperson.

We ask all of you for your prayers and continued support for YAM and for Sury, as he takes on this new appointment. Rest assured, he will remain committed as coordinator of YAM and continue to contribute to the youth ministry in OLPS.
