Members of the YMCA of Pamunugama gathered today evening (21.03.2016) to meditate and reflect on the Easter. As this year has named as the Year of Mercy by the Catholic Church, the meditation also based on the same.
Event started with a entering prayer led by a Girl Guide and followed with video presentations on Mercy and Way of Cross. Then the members prayed together and sang Easter hims. At the end of presentations Rev Fr. Samidu Pathum shares a reflection on the connection between Easter and compassion. Then he blessed the gathering and led with a closing prayer committing all for a Easter filled with compassion and love.
All the activities of the event emphasized the need to go beyond weeping at the Easter season as weeping is given the major focus in Easter activities in the Sri Lanka. Around 100 child and adult YMCA members joined the event.
