August 27, 2016 - One Day Spiritual Retreat for Leaders - "What is Your Net Worth?"

Today, TNF Torrance held our annual One Day Spiritual Retreat for Leaders. 

This event was for our members age 16+ and the theme this year was "What is Your Net Worth?" In preparation for the coming school year, we want to remind ourselves about what is important in our service and renew our faith. We welcomed our current and future leaders to experience a day of self-reflection and discussion to talk about our gifts as children of God. 

We had several presenters including So Thanh (DMTG), Cha Long, Cha Hoai Chuong, Thay Pho Te Long, and our own HTs Anh Peter and Chi Diana. The day was spent exploring society's definition of net worth compared to God's definition of net worth. As Catholics, what ideas of net worth should we hold most important? We talked about what our God-given talents are and how to use them in our work as fishers of men. As young people, there are often no easy answers to these ideas but we want to continually recognize that we are all different and have many things to offer to God and our world.

One the short and simple ideas of the day: love yourself!

We hope that our participants were able to bond and have a great time throughout this retreat. More importantly, we hope that you were able to learn, be challenged, and grow from this experience.
