'Be persistent in prayer, and keep alert as you pray, Giving thanks to God."-Colossians 4:2
And this is exactly what the Jesus Youth of Mangalore did. The intercession month was inaugrated with a mass celebrated by Fr. Francis and con-celebrated by Fr. Rudolf Noronha.
Each day,the entire Jeus Youth of Mangalore prayed for a particular intention during the month. The Night Vigil held on the 14th of Nov at the Bishop's house was an experience of its kind, with the theme of Prolife. About 28 members were present for it. One half of the night was spent in understanding about prolife and the other for interceding for the Unborn children. Dr. Mammen ( incharge of the National Doctors core team) was the main resource for the night vigil.
The rosary procession on the 21st began from Pastoral center, Bajjodi and ended at the Infant Jesus Shrine, Bikarnakatte with an houf of adoration. The time of adoring and worshiping the Lord was led by Jeejo and Berna. Around 60 were present for this and each had a rejuvenating experience with the Lord.
A Taize worship was organised on the 24th of Nov at Fatima retreat house, Valencia. The true held felt worship was led by Rodney Pereira and a team of musicians. Around 55 members were present for the worship.
The intercession month ended with the celebration of the Holy Eucharist by Fr. Rudolf Noronha ( animator of Jesus Youth,Mangalore). Indeed the city was blessed with number of blessings during this beautiful month of prayer.
