On the 14th of June, when all the exams were finished at the YTU, the students put away their books for the meantime. Then they went off to the soccer field at Box Hill and play their favorite soccer game. This was followed by a convivial dinner. It was truly relaxing time! In the photo are: (Standing L to R): Anton Nahak, Ino, Le Phi Long, Sang Bok Son "Bosco", Gabriel Kokon, and Willy Uvea. (Sitting L to R): Kasmir Nema, Alusio "Sio" Maravu and Eddie Lerring.
But what has sports to do with preparing for ministry or being a missionary? The remark of the late Pope, John Paul II, is well known to us. When he was criticised for having a swimming pool constructed in the Vatican grounds, he said that it would be "...cheaper to construct a swimming pool than to have another Consistory to elect a new pope!" ***
Incidently, I found out that our sports budget is placed under our health budget. Ahah! A healthy mind in a healthy body!
However, St. Paul, whose YEAR OF ST. PAUL we celebrate this year (2008 June to 2009 June) has this to say: "Let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us..." (Heb. 12:1, NRSV)
