A dousing from Rod Blessey, youth minister
at Saint Rose of Lima Parish (left), sprays a
cooling blast of fun during the Fan the Fire Youth Rally held
on Saint Rose on August 15.
The rally offered a rousing day of
praise, music, games, laughter, Eucharistic Adoration, the Sacrament
of Reconciliation, and a closing Mass with Bishop William E.
Lori.
Witness talks like this one by Sister
Erika Scheelje, M.C.R. (above), the new diocesan director
of youth ministry, challenged teens to grow in their faith.
More than 500 people attended the
rally (top), representing 23 parishes, and more than 1,500 prayers
for our Holy Father were prayed throughout the day.
