Young people seeking a deeper encounter with faith during Lent are invited to embark on a journey, “Beyond the Shore”, organised by the MSSP Oratory Youth. This year’s Lenten talks will explore the life of Peter, delving into his defining moments of calling, doubt, betrayal, and renewal.
Peter’s journey was one of bold leaps and profound struggles—moments of trust followed by fear, of failure met with redemption. His story reflects the tension between human weakness and divine grace, offering a powerful invitation to anyone navigating their own path of faith.
More than just a series of talks, each session will create a space for reflection, prayer, and communion. Thought-provoking inputs will be woven together with moments of personal prayer, beautiful music, and a strong sense of fellowship. Thursday’s session will also offer the Sacrament of Reconciliation, providing an opportunity for renewal in preparation for Easter.
Over the years, these Lenten talks have become a transformative experience for many. Past participants have spoken about the impact of having a space to pause from daily life and reflect on their spiritual journey. Some have found fresh perspectives on challenges they were facing, while others described it as a time of rediscovery, renewal, and encountering God’s love in a personal way. The community aspect of these gatherings has also left a lasting impression, with many forming friendships that continue to enrich their faith journey long after Lent has passed.
The Lenten talks will take place from Tuesday 1st to Friday 4th April at 8:00pm at the MSSP Oratory, in B’Kara. Led by Fr Bernard Falzon MSSP, who has been a familiar face within the Oratory community, these sessions promise to be an experience of deep spiritual growth. All youths are welcome to join this journey.
