You want to plant but don't have any seedlings? Have no fear! Run to the nearest DENR office because they've pledged to give free seedlings to everyone who will be part of the 1M Trees Project of the CBCP - Year of the Youth. 

Young People: Stand firm in Christ!

Dear People of God in the Philippines,

most especially the youth,

“God has given me the grace of passionately loving the youth”.

With the desire to make these words of Blessed John Paul II our own, we, your Bishops, cordially greet you in this CBCP Year of the Youth! May God’s love, ever fresh, ever young, be with you all, in this special time of grace and blessing!

Through this pastoral letter, we want to reach out to you, the Filipino youth, and communicate to you our thoughts and sentiments regarding this most blessed opportunity, this grace-filled time.

Perhaps the one thing which some of you cannot seem to get enough of, is TIME—you being always in a hurry and on the go, multi-tasking left and right, doing a lot of things, and yet feeling as if you never have enough time in your hands. God, instead, is the One beyond time: Eternal, timeless, unchanging. But He entered into our time, thereby sanctifying it. In God, chronos thus becomes kairos.

As the CBCP Year of the Youth, the year 2011 becomes indeed a special time, a time of grace. Fortuitously and fortunately, the year 2011 is also the 25th Anniversary of the Episcopal Commission on Youth (ECY), the commission in our Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) directly attending to you and your concerns; its silver jubilee served as a primary motivation for us to declare this year as Year of the Youth. Like more than a decade ago with the Great Jubilee of the Year 2000, this year also promises abundant blessings for you, dear young people. ........ (read & download the whole document)
