On August 20, 2026, the Senior High School students and mission partners gathered in prayer through a Holy Mass as they welcomed the visitation of the image of Niรฑa Maria. The celebration became a meaningful opportunity for the community, especially the youth, to pause from their busy days, come together in faith, and reflect on the importance of placing God at the center of their lives.
During the celebration, it was also emphasized that a childish heart and a childlike heart are very different. A childish heart may refer to someone who is immature or easily affected by things, while a childlike heart reflects qualities such as innocence, humility, trust, openness, and a sincere willingness to learn. This message reminded the youth that growing older does not mean losing the goodness and simplicity of a childlike heart.
The presence of Niรฑa Maria reminded everyone of the beauty of growing in faith and humility, with a heart willing to follow God. As young people continue to discover their purpose and face different challenges, her image served as a reminder that the journey of faith begins with having a sincere heart, being open to Godโs guidance, and learning to trust Him every step of the way.
For the youth, this visitation was more than simply welcoming an image into the school community. It was an invitation to reflect on the values they carry as young Josephinians and to consider how they can bring kindness, respect, love, and faith into their everyday lives. In a world filled with distractions and pressures, Niรฑa Maria reminds the youth to remain grounded in what truly matters and to keep a childlike heart that trusts God.
Through the Holy Mass and the visitation, the community was reminded that the youth have an important place in the life of the Church. They are not only the future of the community but also young people who can already make a difference today through their words, actions, and example.
May the visitation of Niรฑa Maria continue to inspire every young Josephinian to grow in faith, remain humble, and become a source of hope and kindness to others. ๐ค๐ชฝ
