LOL Maronite Club
summer camp concluded today with Divine Liturgy celebrated at the Mother of
Light Convent by Father Jack Morrison of Our Lady of Purgatory, New
Bedford. There were LOL members, volunteers, and parents in
attendance.
The LOL Club began
on Monday, August 4 with a week of learning about how much God loves them
through DVD's, crafts, bible sharing, games, prayer, choir practice, and snacks.
This year’s program was written and coordinated by Mother Marla Marie and Sr.
Therese Maria, with an Australian “Outback” theme. We were riding the Boomerang
Express all the way to Jesus and the children were able to learn some fun facts
about Australia along the way!
Each day’s
spiritual program and catechesis presented a different theme: self-worth as God’s
children; friendship and its true meaning; obedience to God and our parents;
and the virtue of courage.
