TEC STRESS ON YOUNG CATHOLIC MORAL COURAGE THROUGH SMALL CHRISTIAN COMMUNITIES




The comprehensive and sustainable Catechism teachings, Pastoral approach towards young people living in a rapidly changing World through the Small Christian Communities will help Tanzania young Catholics to discover their vocational path.
The call was made by the National Youth Coordinator of Tanzania Episcopal Conference (TEC) Rev. Fr Liberatus Kadio during the seminar held at TEC Kurasini Center and attended by leaders representing various Apostolic Agencies.

Fr Kadio said that through Small Christian Communities young Catholics will be encouraged and influenced by older Christian mentors to encourage them discern what secular vocations they are called to pursue.
"The environment in which young people live in today's World is not friendly. Yet young people are consistently the least likely group which participates in small Christian communities. We must use small Christian communities to nurture and encourage the vocation of those called to a list of missionary discipleship through their daily life. We must never underestimate the power of our young people,” he said.
Addressing external challenges contributing to the adversity of youth-facing problems, Fr Kadio appealed that lack of ongoing and in depth catechetical sessions, little involvement of the clergy and the laity leaders in youth related matters and lack of young men and women who live a true experience of the gospel life are some factors broaden the challenges.
"Young people now appreciate material things more than humanity, the only thing that concerns and bothers the young person is having a good house, car and money. When they find it all, they don’t bother to live the purity and beauty of the Catholic culture. We must use small Christian communities to help young people to realize the fact that a better world can be built also as a result of their efforts as they feel grateful for the ability to freely profess their faith,” He added.
