Kokosi Catholic Church uplifts community through Youth and Father's Day celebrations
The St Augustine Catholic Church in Kokosi went the extra mile to make Youth Month and other recent events memorable for its community.
According to active church member Anastasia Lefalatsa, young people from the church helped organise a heartwarming Father's Day surprise. Each father in the congregation received a special meal and a blue ribbon as a token of appreciation. 'We held this as a surprise to make the fathers feel that they are special and valued,' Lefalatsa said. It was the first time the church hosted such an event.
In addition to this, Father Don Jastin travelled to Wedela on Youth Day to host a workshop for young people from both Kokosi and Wedela. Critical issues such as unemployment, drug abuse, and gangsterism were discussed.
Looking ahead, the church plans to continue its community outreach with a special initiative for Mandela Day.
