Youths Explore Vocation at S.C.A.N
In a powerful display of faith and discovery, the Church of the Good Shepherd, Setapak, recently partnered with ASAYO to host S.C.A.N.—a transformative vocation programme for the next generation. The event brought together 250 enthusiastic youths and 37 lay collaborators, centred around four spiritual pillars: Seek, Charism, Accept, and Navigate.
The day featured insightful breakout sessions and a moving Holy Hour, all aimed at helping participants explore the priesthood and religious life. Archbishop Julian Leow presided over the culminating Mass, during which Fr. Michel Dass delivered an inspiring message: do not fear failure in discernment. He encouraged the youth to trust God's guidance over their own anxieties.
With support from Parish Priest Fr. Mitchell Anthony, Vocation Director Fr. Simon Labrooy, and various religious brothers and sisters, the event provided a rare, personal insight into consecrated life. The journey doesn't end here; participants are already looking forward to a follow-up retreat to continue their spiritual exploration.
