Auckland Youth Mass marks graduation of new youth leaders

Tuesday, August 27th, 2013

On Sunday 25 August the monthly Diocesan Youth Mass at the Cathedral in Auckland incorporated the graduation of the participants in the A Place to Stand leadership programme.

A Place to Stand is a leadership development programme for 18-25s who wish to take a more active role in their parish or group community.

The programme was led by The Logos Project on behalf of the Auckland Catholic Diocese.

The programme began in April. There were five weekly sessions, followed by one a fortnight later, then monthly meetings. It included a weekend retreat.

Almost 900 people attended the mass which was prepared and led by the Logos.

One of the people who was there said, “Mass was terrific tonight! Amazing musical group. Will be a regular on the last Sunday of the month!”
