[JOYnet] WYD and Rex Band Updates!!!
Heo Everyone!! I am writing from an internet station in Toronto where our Holy Father is right outside the building! We saw him arrive and greeted him...things are going well, though they are almost over! All of our JY have been having a great time meeting one another from around the world. We spent a few days in Ottawa together for the Youth ARise INternational Festival, and headed to Toronto from there. Here in Toronto, we are all spread out, but have seen each other several times. The Rex Band performances here at World Youth Day have gone off well, and lots of people enjoyed it. I hope someone was able to view it on EWTN or another station. I've taken quite a few photos and will upload them after I get back to the States. The next few days will be sad ones for us as some of our JY will be leaving soon. Please pray for us that we will remain strong in the Lord and always hold these precious memories of being together in our hearts. Our first International Jesus Youth Gathering also went well!! I have pics of that too. Tomorrow we are meeting one more time. Please keep our future, our global vision in prayer. Until later, God bless the youth of the world, our Holy Father, and our wonderful Church. May the heart of Jesus reign always in our lives. Love & Prayers Always, Leese Yahoo!

[JOYnet] Re: SUICIDE
Hi all, Just thought of joining this discussion on Suicide. I think it is good to discuss such topics in this group. Knowing the christian teachings on such topics will help us and we can help others too. Also, knowing the word of God is important. But we need to see that the Bible interpretations are done according to the church teachings. I think there are many people in our JOYnet who can guide us in this matter. Whenever the discussions go away from the church teachings, I hope these friends will interfere and correct the joynetters. Let's not be ashamed of the Word of God. In these discussions many different opinions will come. But let's discern the right things and accept it.

I didnt know then what Suicide was. I remember when I asked around why a person commits suicide I was given to understand that 'suicide' was another form of 'being a coward', a person unable to stand up to the challenges of life. For me the word 'coward' was very strong. Because no one likes being called a 'coward' or a 'darpok'. > > It was only later as I grew up did I realise what actually facing life and it challenges meant. That how easy it was to think of suicide when things didnt go ur way as Welchy had mentioned in her mail. > > For me I guess Committing a sin is like betraying Jesus. And we do read in the gospels there were two Apostles who betrayed Jesus. Both were aware that what they did was wrong. One repented and the other committed Suicide. The one who repented became a great apostle and the other we know his fate when he committed suicide. There is still hope in repentance and I guess if we commit suicide we lose out on this this hope. > > Now I have read the other mails and I do agree that in light of some facts we should share it with our spiritual fathers. I also do agree that we should not misinterpret the Holy Scripture. > > However I totally disagree that this should prevent us from sharing any such topics out here. It may deter some. But on the flip side we can gain valuable knowledge and experience from those whose faith are strong in Christ and have gone through such experience as Father Thomas has mentioned. I remember my brother telling me how useful the discussion of "taking prasad" which was shared out here was. On quoting scriptures. I do personally disagree with the fact that we should not quote them at all. How would we know what we are quoting is in the wrong context if we dont quote them at all. And I do see that we have so many wonderful Word ministers here that should we falter they are there to correct us.
