The Penang English Choice 56 weekend was held recently at St Anne’s Domus. The weekend was attended by 20 young single youths from Penang diocese and 1 participant from Melaka. CHOICE is a self-enrichment experience.
It is a weekend getaway from the busy lifestyle. It's about making choices, looking into every aspect of our relationship with the significant people in our lives. Our weekend experience provides young single adults to look at the various relationships in our lives e.g. family, friends, Church etc, in a relaxed and informal environment. Fr Dominic Santhiyagu celebrated Mass before the closing of the weekend. Elizabeth Anthony is the Penang English CHOICE Coordinator 1.
It was a great rediscovery of myself during the weekend, the live-in experience of belonging and being cared for by real people unconditionally is priceless, says Felicia Wong from St Anne’s BM. “Choice experience widened my knowledge about myself and my life.
It gave me a new perspective on how I see the people around me, most importantly my loved ones, giving me a more profound understanding of the person I should and could be. This journey has also taught me to be more grateful to others and appreciate the gifts that God has blessed me with,” shares Edwina Edwin from Penang Immaculate Conception Parish.
CHOICE Penang is currently preparing for its 1st Weekend of CHOICE Mandarin which will be held in Aug and CHOICE Tamil Perak which will be in September this year.
