Youth for Christ UP Diliman (YFC-UPD) will once again proclaim that Jesus is alive in the whole UP Diliman campus as their Campus Tour events will once again roll out this coming April 2018.
Held annually, YFC-UPD’s Campus Tour events focus on different faith perspectives. This year, with their theme Esprit de Corps, a phrase used to describe a feeling of pride, fellowship, and common loyalty shared by the members of a particular group, YFC-UPD will conduct various events that cater to the whole UP Diliman community and the nearby public.
Spearheading the campus tour events this year would be its Youth Camp Haven, a two-night and two-day camp happening this coming April 6-8 2018. The whole camp will impart its participants the rudiments of a Christian way of living through sessions, talks, fun games, workshops and more. YFC-UPD invites all UP students aged 16-21 who want to experience fun, faith, friendship, and freedom, the YFC style. Sign-up now at tinyurl.com/yfcupdcamp.
On the last day of Youth Camp Haven, Esprit de Corps Campus Tour 2018 will be officially launched, with the following events that would surely cater to the spiritual, physical, and mental needs of UP students, UP community, and the general public:
Stratagem Dare week, happening from April 10 to 13, 2018, will offer fun mini-games for the UP Community. Targeted to be done at a street adjacent to Palma Hall (ASCAL), it is an income generating project for YFC-UPD’s community immersion to be held at campus tour’s latter part. Come, see, and play the mini-games and win as much as 500 pesos. One will surely have fun for a greater cause in this campus tour event.
Two educational youth assemblies will be conducted in UP Diliman in lieu of Campus Tour 2018. The first of the series is entitled Invigorate on April 12 from 5-8pm. It is an educational forum concerning the mental health issues faced by university or college students. Rekindle Youth Assembly is on April 19 from 5-8pm also. Rekindle is another educational forum about our Christian faith. This event is open to everyone.
Last is the Luster Community Immersion. Through this event, YFC-UPD hopes to spark light and joy in the community on April 21-22, 2018. YFC-UPD calls for possible organization partners who are willing to help us in this event to email us at yfc.upd@gmail.com for a possible partnership.
Capping-off with Ascend, a YFC-UPD Campus Tour Culmination Night happening on April 26, the organization hopes to celebrate the success of proclaiming Jesus Christ in UP Diliman. YFC-UPD celebrates its triumph in bringing more people closer to the Lord, and in partly answering the mission for the UP Community to find that common fellowship which is our one Faith.
