CHRISTMAS PARTY FJY-TALON
On the 30th of December 2015 at four o’clock in the afternoon, the Father Jordan Youth had a first ceremony which was the celebration of the Holy Eucharist; together with Fr. Hermann Preussner, SDS as the main celebrant. After the Holy Mass they immediately transfered to “Bahay kubo” for the next program.
Some were preparing food for dinner, some were arranging needed things and some singing because they rented a videoke. All had tasks to do and helped each other and then when the evening came, at seven o’clock, the simple but beautiful dinner together with Fr. Hermann Preussner, SDS, began. A lot of food, softdrinks, and dessert were being served. Some brothers also went there to join the essence of their christmas party. After dinner they had a game which called “Binggo” and everybody was obligated to participate because there were prizes to be received by the winner. While having the game, some were also singing and then just for a few minutes Fr. Hubert Kranz, SDS and Fr. Adam Janus, SDS came and everybody welcomed them.
Fr. Adam Janus, SDS was giving a message for everybody and expressing himself by saying thanks to them and after that they had some food to eat. The Fathers did not take a long time in the party for the reason that it was already late in the evening and the weather was a little bit cold and many things to be done. Then, the party was still going on, some were taking pictures (selfie), and some were sleepy already. The most beautiful program that they had been waiting for was the exchaning of gifts. They were so excited to see the gifts that they would be chosen and hurriedly opened it. Everybody was happy even in a simple thing which would make them feel that they are loved and not alone. And after that the party was done and they gone home with a merry Christmas.
Simple celebration is enough for everybody because God, who is simple, wants everyone to be like Him, and if a person is simple, God will never leave him. Simple things can make everyone happy in a simple way.
