Welcome Back to TNTT 2018-2019
In the past 6 years, our Đoàn has grown greatly. We have grown because of the support and love received from our priests, parish, and our parents. Our Huynh Trưởng team continues to grow to serve our growing Đoàn. And each year, the number of các em joining Đoàn continues to grow, from the littlest Ấu Nhi of 5 years old to our 17-year old Hiệp Sĩ. The youth is yearning for fulfillment, for truth, for a light in this world filled with much darkness. It is only through the Eucharist, Christ fills our lives with love, peace, and joy. Our Đoàn’s source of growth through the years comes from no other than Jesus in the Eucharist. He has provided our Đoàn with everything we have needed at the times we have called out to Him.
Personally, Christ has blessed me abundantly. I started my term while I was in pharmacy school. Sure it was hard getting through school, but not nearly as hard as planning for an unknown future. As I neared my pharmacy graduation, the unknown of what I was going to do for my career scared me. Was I going to get that dream job? The job that I was working so hard for. Should I be spending my free time at TNTT? Should I be out there instead making connections in the field of pharmacy to better my chances to get THAT dream job? I had my doubts, in myself, and in Christ. But through that fear, something inside me kept on pushing me to continue serving in TNTT. Sure there were many sleepless nights, exams, applications to submit, and yes, even rejections received, but all those were exactly in God’s plans. He knew what was coming was even better than what I’d prayed for, and sure enough He provided. As the years progressed, and relationships started getting serious, the thought of moving away from my family and my Đoàn looms over me. But yet again, through my doubt and uncertainty, God has given me a loving husband who shows me everyday what sacrifice and true love really is. I cannot be where I am today without Christ, and it is through TNTT that I get to be in His presence.
My dear Đoàn, if I may offer you an advice that I have learned during my years of service, that is, always search for Him. Place that as your first priority. With everyday that you search for Christ, He will be every step closer to you. Find Him in the peace and quiet of the Holy Eucharist. Place your doubts and fears in front of Him and He will turn them into hope and a promise that He will provide.
I know He will continue to guide our Đoàn as long as you allow Him to reside in you and take ownership of your fears and doubts. Thank you for allowing me to serve you all these past 6 years. Please also help me to thank our previous Ban Chấp Hành:
Tr. Chi, Tr. Lộc, Tr. Maria, Tr. Thuỳ, Tr. Phát, Tr. Vân, Tr. Tommy, and Tr. Kathy.
Through the love of Christ and các em, they have served. Thank you team.
Please also welcome in our new Ban Chấp Hành, and pray that the Holy Spirit guide them and give them knowledge and strength as they begin their term to serve our Đoàn, and further our mission of bringing everyone to Christ.
