What we do
Every year, the Corinthian Youth Movement holds Corinthian Weekend Seminars. A
Corinthians weekend is a chance for young Catholic students to listen, discuss,
and better understand what it means to be a Catholic today.
Since the first Weekend in 1984, the Corinthians has already given 60 weekends
here in Fairview. It has also planted seed weekends in the communities of Sta.
Lucia, Bf Homes, School of the Holy Spirit, Phil-am subdivision, San Nicholas,
Our Father Parish, Las Pinas, Tondo, San Pedro Laguna, Makati, Kamias, Daet,
Isabela, Pangasinan, Bataan, Bulacan, Bagiuo, and Marikina.
Every Sunday, the members of the Corinthian Community also meet for their weekly
prayer meeting, which follows after the weekend. The prayer meetings offer a way
to stay in touch with the community and an opportunity to continue growing with
and in Christ.
Aside from the Corinthian Weekends and the weekly prayer meetings, the
Corinthian Youth Movement has also created activities like the Dawn Prayer
Meeting, Sports fest, Leadership Training Seminar, Speakers Workshop,
Recollections and Retreats, Visita Iglesia, Year-Ender Celebration, Community
Building Seminar and Praise Day. These activities strengthen the Corinthian
members as individuals and as individuals and as a community while in the
presence of Christ.
To pass on God’s love does not mean helping only people we know but also those
whom we do not know yet need the love of God. For this reason, the Corinthian
Youth Movement has adopted projects like rummage sales. Free clinics, and visits
to orphanages and other institutions.
In the Bible, the early Corinthians was a misunderstood group but St. Paul
constantly affirmed his fondness of them. The present Corinthians sometimes see
themselves in the shoes of those early brothers and sisters they were named
after. They too, are sometimes misunderstood, criticized and doubted by people.
But empowered by God and with God’s Providence and the Parish’s support, the
Corinthians have kept their promise - - to pass it on … God’s love.
