WCCCLC 2008:

WCCCLC 2008 has come to an end, and it was a huge success! Thanks to everyone who participated, and those who couldn't make it but helped out and prayed for us. The weather was real nice, and the outdoor environment is just beautiful at Jubilee Camp. Fr. Savio Hon's talks are very good, and we even have Archbishop Miller coming in to celebrate Mass with us. Everyone's spirit was very high, as we sang all the way from the camp site to Deep Cove on our boat ride, evangelizing on the boat!

To continue on with the WCCCLC spirit, we will be having a post-camp meeting on Sunday, September 14 from 2-4pm at Canadian Martyrs Catholic Church (5771 Granville Ave., Richmond). We are planning to re-live some of the moments of the camp, and give everyone a chance to meet back together. We will also give you some detail about discerning to God in helping out with next year's camp, so make sure you don't miss it. For those who could not attend this year's camp, you are welcome to come to the post-camp as well to meet our campers and learn about the things we did at camp!

Lastly, photos from the camp will be uploaded to the Snapshot section of the website soon. We also uploaded some photos and videos onto our Facebook group, so be sure to check them out!

March Update:

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

During this Lenten season, I have been talking to some of my friends about what their plans are for these 40 days. Some of us have been giving up.... snacks: to remind us how hungry we are for His Word bubble tea/coffee: to make us realize how our souls thirst for Him tv time in exchange for prayer time....and volunteering: to sacrifice our own time for others. Lent is not just a time for repentance, it is also a great time to become aware of all the blessings God has given us and to praise Him for it!

Over the past 2 months, the helpers of WCCCLC 2008 have raised over $2000 through YOUR help with the sales of our hand-made fish ornaments. Thank you to all who participated! If you or a friend/family would like to purchase more of these unique gifts, we have around 30 left on a first-come-first-serve basis :) Please contact wccclc.promotion@gmail.com for one now! They are $5 each and all proceeds would go towards WCCCLC fundraising.

Thank you for waiting patiently with us...the theme and title for WCCCLC 2008 is finally born!Our title this year is "神恩 "R" 4 Us: Got Gifts? God Gives!" with our theme being "Come Rediscover the Holy Spirit Who Releases His gifts Be Reborn in the Divine Fire to Renew our World".

Please visit us often for any other updates and stay tuned! Thank you for your continued support and prayers!

God bless,

  • Marian
