“Do whatever he tells you” (Jn. 2:5): this was the theme of the 20th International Convention for Singles for Christ, held in Manila’s World Trade Center this past February. The event brought together more than 8,000 young men and women from different countries for three days of study, prayer, reflection and worship.
Singles for Christ is one of the family ministries of Couples for Christ, which offers pastoral care not only to those who are called to marriage but also to those who may be considering the religious or lay vocations. For the first time, the Daughters of St. Paul were invited to participate in the Convention, offering it their presence of light by means of a media display and the witness to our Pauline life and mission.
Our sisters hope that many of the young singles who participated in this event will respond to the invitation of the Lord of the harvest to work in his vineyard as consecrated Paulines.
