MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Con Thiên Chúa giáng trần là một mầu nhiệm yêu thương cứu độ. Ước gì lễ Giáng Sinh năm nay nhắc nhở mỗi người chúng ta ý thức và sống với mầu nhiệm cứu độ này mỗi ngày và hàng tuần, nhất là mỗi lần tham dự thánh lễ. Mến chúc quý Cha, quý Trợ Úy, quý Trợ Tá, các Huynh Trưởng và các đoàn sinh được tràn đầy niềm vui và an bình của Chúa Hài Nhi trong dịp mừng lễ Giáng Sinh 2018. Merry Christmas!

In joyful celebration for the coming of the Son of God, along with the Chaplains at the Headquarters, the National Executive Committee wishes all Chaplains, Deacons, Religious Brothers and Sisters, Layman Chaplain Assistants, Parents, Benefactors and Youth Members of all ranks a blessed Christmas filled with peace and grace.

May the love of the Infant Jesus, through the intercession of Mary and St. Joseph, be with each and every member of the Vietnamese Eucharistic Youth Movement.

Thank you all who made efforts in organizing activities for our National Day of Apostolic Work (NDAW) during this month. Where there is charity and love, there is God. Keep tagging Veym-Usa Tntt and keep the NDAW spirit alive. Thank you all!

National Day of Apostolic Work/Volunteer Day: The timeframe of executing this was short, but thankful to them all for coming and participating with me. From preparing the food, finishing up the blankets, to bringing the food to the site — thank you!! We didn’t get to interact with the residents of the homeless village as I was anticipating but hope you all still felt like you guys did some good today and lived out the advent spirit. Small group, but such big hearts — love you all! #NDAW #TNTTXC

National Apostolic Work Day 2018 at the Center of Family Love in Okarche, OK.
The children spent some time with people who are mentally and physically challenged at the center. They played bingo with them and prepared their community room for the Christmas season!

Nghĩa Sĩ National Day of Apostolic Works 2018 was a success! We were able to pass out 150 care packages (water bottles, fruit bars, fruit snacks, chips, applesauce, beanies, and a candy cane prayer card with warm wishes) at the Lord’s Diner today. Many smiles were seen and our hearts are warm despite this cold weather.

We encouraged các em to contribute to the funds to purchase supplies for the care packages, they had been bringing in their spare change for about 6 weeks and raised $70. With their efforts, the Huynh Trưởng of Ngành Nghĩa brought in $710 more from other generous donors from Đoàn Kitô Vua and from family and friends.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to our many donors for making this possible.
