Dear Young People and Youth Ministers,

As we commence this new year, we are pleased to offer the National Youth Day (NYD) 2025-2026 Formation Program, powerfully titled: 𝐑𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐝. 𝐑𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐭. 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧.

This Formation Module invites us to reflect deeply on the theme proclaimed by Pope Leo XIV for the 40th World Youth Day: "𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐨 𝐦𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬, 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐞" (𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧 𝟏𝟓:𝟐𝟕). This journey is designed to help our young people first focus on their personal friendship with Jesus, acknowledging their "𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟." This relationship then naturally overflows into their respective "𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐩𝐬" and communities with an active sense of Mission for truth and love, ultimately resulting in building a fraternity—a strong bond of peace—within the greater "𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲."

By participating in this Module, we open clear pathways for our youth to become the champions of truth and harmony, serving as a light against local corruption, division, and apathy.

Taking inspiration from the Holy Father's message, the talking points and activities are based on various Bible verses concerning our friendship with Jesus, our universal call to Mission, and the peace that our collective efforts bring about in Fraternity. The program also offers dynamic platforms where young people are encouraged to voice their own stories and reflections, and to listen to the shared experiences of others.

Special thanks are extended to our friends from the 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 - 𝐅𝐈𝐍 and the ECY National Secretariat for the conceptualization and design of this NYD 2025-2026 Program. We pray in God that, through our collective efforts, we can effectively bring this vital message to the young people of your respective Local Churches.

"Since youth constitute a large and dynamic portion of the laity, the youth ministry should be assured of the fullest attention and highest priority in every way by all in the Church." - Second Plenary Council of the Philippines (P*P II), art. 50, no. 2.

Tomorrow, December 16, on which begins the nine-day Aguinaldo Masses in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary and offered "for the perseverance of the nation in the faith" (cf. Ordo 2026), is also our yearly NATIONAL YOUTH DAY! Let us support Catholic youth ministry in the Philippines through our prayers, collaboration, and financial aid.

"At the start of the Christmas novena, the Church in the Philippines celebrates the presence of the youth. The collections of all Masses are for the youth ministry and to be submitted to the Local Ordinary within 15 days and divided accordingly: 70% to the Diocesan Youth Ministry, and 30% to the CBCP-Episcopal Commission on Youth." (Ordo 2026).

We are deeply grateful for the continued support of the diocesan youth ministries. Their support in promoting this collection is key, as 70% of the proceeds are allocated back to them."

The FNYO coordinating council had a meeting with Fr. Jade Licuanan, our chaplain, and also the Executive Secretary of the CBCP Episcopal Commission on Youth. He set the vision for the FNYO for the coming year. It was a night full of discoveries, insights, and redirection. Get ready and be excited about the works of the Holy Spirit in 2026. 🤗🙏
