Lasallian Youth take the big apple by storm
Lindsay Poroli
Editor In Chief

Faith, service, and community are the core principals of the Lasallian Youth. These principles brought over 100 people to the Manhattan Lasallian Youth Assembly this summer. People from both sides of the United States came together bound by the ideals of St. John Baptist De La Salle.

The Catholic faith was an important part of the conference. The week began with a mass in which the priest taught about the liturgy as the youths celebrated together. There was a prayer service every morning and night. The fun-filled week closed with a beautiful mass complete with a slide show of the assembly’s events.

The Lasallians served the New York community for three days, eight hours a day at various sites. "Service was the most rewarding part of the trip," said senior Ashley Iwafuchi. For her service, Ashley worked for God’s Love We Deliver, an organization that prepares and delivers food to home-bound AIDS patients.

Senior Mike O’Brien stated, "Distance doesn’t really matter; we are all Lasallian." Probably the most exciting part of the trip was meeting new people. They were very friendly which helps when one is 3000 miles away from home. The CB spirit was truly alive in the students.

Visiting New York was a great way for CB’s Lasallian Youth to widen their faith, serve the community, and build great relationships within the group and beyond.
