Week of March 30th, 2015
Wishing all VEYM Members a Blessed Holy Week and a Happy Easter!!!
Lent is a time to quiet ourselves and further develop our relationship with God. As we try to identify with Christ's crucifixion, we may increase our prayer time, make sacrifices, get involved in ministry, re-commit ourselves to active services in our parish and community, or do a number of different activities that would draw us closer to Jesus. The National Spiritual Bouquet was created with those objectives in mind. As the National Spiritual Bouquet Campaign - Walk the Lenten Journey has ended. We sincerely appreciate and thank all Regions, Chapters, and VEYM-USA members for walking the Lenten Journey with us. Additionally, many thanks to all Regions and Chapters that have made effort in contributing your Spiritual Flowers!
The VEYM collects Spiritual Flowers of all its members. We encourage all all Chapters from all Regions to contribute yours to VEYM Treasure Book.

As we journey and walk with the Lord into the Holy Week, we must remain confident that surely, we will experience pain and suffering of Good Friday and celebrate the joy and happiness of Easter Morning! Have a blessed and special Holy Week!!!

Good News!
It is encouraging for the Chaplains and Youth-Leaders of the Curriculum Development Committee to receive acknowledgment and recognition from members of the National Assembly during its scheduled meeting on March 31st, 2015. The National Assembly spoke highly of the quality and approach that the Curriculum Development Committee has done to prepare the weekly Gospel lessons for all Divisions. Specifically, the Assembly praises the benefits of the newly developed learning methodology set forth by the Academy Headquarters to educate youth-members. Rev. Francis Trần Quốc Tuấn, former VEYM General Chaplain cited, “The lessons are well-prepared and the approach to learning the Gospel is excellent. Not only will this method help VEYM members learn at their local chapters, it can also be utilized by parents to guide families in learning the Gospel during the week. I hope that the Academy Headquarters will implement the new lessons as soon as possible to help VEYM members, their families and their local parishes.”
Each week, VEYM members will learn through imitating Christ through the Gospel and the practice of one virtue. This is the theme of the new learning method, “Imitate Jesus’ Life through Scripture by learning, practicing and living the Catholic virtues.” The lesson subheadings, Understand It!, Explore It!, Connect It, Reflect It!, Live It!, Remember It! and Pray It! are carefully selected and organized to accommodate different age groups and Divisions.
To effectively learn the Word of God and practice the virtues, the Academy Headquarters approves of the collectivistic educational approach where the participation and collaboration of youth-members (students), Youth-leaders/Chaplains (teachers) and parents and siblings (family) are necessary. These three components are the legs of a three-legged stool in children pedagogy.
All Chaplains, Youth-Leader Trainers and Youth-Leaders are encouraged to attend the VEYM Executive Committee Conference or teleconference to encounter firsthand and to listen to the presentation of the Academy Headquarters and Curriculum Development Committee.
