National Youth Leadership Summit

National Youth Leadership Summit The National Youth Leadership Summit (NYLS) is the primary Peace and Leadership Education Program of the Youth for Peace Advocacy Movement Initiatives

The Youth Leadership Summit (YLS) is the primary Peace and Leadership Education program of the National Youth Leadership Summit Event under the Youth for Peace Advocacy Movement Initiative Since 2009 and this project originated way back year 2002. It is already established that the youth is one of the most important segment of our society. They engage in the social transformation of our country an

d they involve themselves in addressing various issues, such as: student’s right, human rights, graft and corruption, and change of governance among others. They respond to these issues through different ways, ranging from more conservative approaches like changing the system from within through peaceful means, to seeking to overthrow the system by joining the armed struggle. In the middle of the spectrum, there are school-and community-based volunteer youth groups that spend their time, energy and resources engaging in social action. Based on current assessments, the most vulnerable target for recruitment of the underground movement is the youth sector. Being that it is the government responsibility to guide the youth in order for them to be on the right track, the Youth for Peace in close coordination with its Partner Institutions from the Government and Non – Government units will spearhead a peace and leadership campaign by conducting Youth Leadership Summits in different municipalities across the provinces of the country and form them into member districts. The Youth Leadership Summit is a Peace Education program initiated by the Youth for Peace in coordination with its partner institutions from the LGU, NGO, DSWD, church groups, PNP and the Philippine Army. It is a four-day stay-in activity aimed at giving the different sub – sectors of the youth a wider perspective on the current issues hindering peace, progress and development, for a broader acceptance of individual responsibility through a series of lectures and interactive discussion focusing on leadership and the role of the youth in nation building. Issues concerning environment protection, drug abuse, human rights and spiritual values are also tackled to supplement their knowledge. Resource persons are invited to present a lecture with ample time for interaction with youth delegates. Leadership workshop exercises, Team Building problem solving activities, Small Group Discussion, Taebo Exercise, Campfire and Disco are also given for the participants to fully achieve a worthwhile experience during their stay. The Youth for Peace is the Advocacy Movement that coordinates the body of all the sub sectors of the youth. Its mission is to help provide mental and technical support that will develop critical thinking skills and qualified leadership. The youth for peace shall seek and lead the prioritization and direction of all government development programs to the youth to harness their full potentials as leaders of the future. It shall encourage and empower youth to take an active role in resolving community issues and institutional society building. It shall endeavor to promote physical, spiritual, intellectual and social well being and inculcate in them the desirable values for civic efficiency and productivity and social responsibility to prepare them for their future role. The organization shall accomplish its mission inspired by the idealism dynamism integrity for the excellence of the Youth for Peace under the guidance of the Almighty God

ROTC STORIES

After choosing to complete its 3-year program, Jayson, corps commander of the University of the Philippines-Diliman, can bear witness to the nationalistic purpose of the ROTC in instilling service to the youth.

With the aim of instilling patriotism and discipline in the youth, the Duterte administration is eyeing making the ROTC program mandatory for students again. It’s one of the reasons why the Armed Forces are keeping a watchful eye on existing ROTC units like that of the University of the Philippines-Diliman, to ensure quality military training. The commitment required to be an officer has challenged Jayson, putting her capacity to balance her responsibilities to the test.

Ecclesiastes 3:12

True Happiness

In the tenth century, Abd al-Rahman III was the ruler of Cordoba, Spain. After fifty years of successful reign (“beloved by my subjects, dreaded by my enemies, and respected by my allies”), al-Rahman took a deeper look at his life. “Riches and honors, power and pleasure, have waited on my call,” he said of his privileges. But when he counted how many days of genuine happiness he’d had during that time, they amounted to just fourteen. How sobering.

The writer of Ecclesiastes was also a man of riches and honor (Ecclesiastes 2:7–9), power and pleasure (1:12; 2:1–3). And his own life evaluation was equally sobering. Riches, he realized, just led to a desire for more (5:10–11), while pleasures accomplished little (2:1–2), and success could be due to chance as much as ability (9:11). But his assessment didn’t end as bleakly as al-Rahman’s. Believing God was his ultimate source of happiness, he saw that eating, working, and doing good could all be enjoyed when done with Him (2:25; 3:12–13).

“O man!” al-Rahman concluded his reflections, “place not thy confidence in this present world!” The writer of Ecclesiastes would agree. Since we’ve been made for eternity (3:11), earthly pleasures and achievements won’t satisfy by themselves. But with Him in our lives, genuine happiness is possible in our eating, working, and living.- Our Daily Bread

Jeremiah 18:4

The Potter's Wheel

In 1952, in an effort to prevent clumsy or careless people from breaking items in a shop, a Miami Beach storeowner posted a sign that read: “You break it, you buy it.” The catchy phrase served as a warning to shoppers. This type of sign can now be seen in many boutiques.

Ironically, a different sign might be placed in a real potter’s shop. It would say: “If you break it, we’ll make it into something better.” And that’s exactly what’s revealed in Jeremiah 18.

Jeremiah visits a potter’s house and sees the potter shaping the “marred” clay with his hands, carefully handling the material and forming “it into another pot” (v. 4). The prophet reminds us that God is indeed a skillful potter, and we are the clay. He is sovereign and can use what He creates to both destroy evil and create beauty in us.

God can shape us even when we’re marred or broken. He, the masterful potter, can and is willing to create new and precious pottery from our shattered pieces. God doesn’t look at our broken lives, mistakes, and past sins as unusable material. Instead, He picks up our pieces and reshapes them as He sees best.

Even in our brokenness, we have immense value to our Master Potter. In His hands, the broken pieces of our lives can be reshaped into beautiful vessels that can be used by Him (v. 4).- Our Daily Bread
