Being a youth of Christ is also a youth of all. Serving not only for the church, but also in the community. As Dr. Jose Rizal said “Ang Kabataan ang Pag-asa nang Bayan”.
A youth has an important rule of the community. They show patriotism and nationalism by simply helping people by not counting the cost or the fame that they get after helping those people in need. They help the community by simply following the rules and be a good citizen of the country. And as a member of the Parish Youth Ministry of the church I show patriotism by simply serving and act what the church teaches us by showing the 7 corporal works of mercy. The reason why I shown love to this country is that I am proud of being a Filipino. Showing love to the country can be seen by helping our co-Filipino. I am happy to serve the church and the community and seeing those people happy whom I serve.
To all Filipino youth showing patriotism and nationalism starts from you. Showing love to the country doesn’t mean that you will to sacrifice your life. You can show patriotism by simply doing simple things that can benefit the whole community. Showing respect to everyone .And lastly we should stop complaining about the flaws of our government and instead work for the growth and development of the country. It is better to be the change first to bring the change. It is important to love the nation we live in and focus more on what it has given to us and what we can give back to it. We need to be united and stand together for the progress of the country for its improvement. “Serving God is serving the community”.
You are right. Youths are the future leaders of any community and country at large. Youths need to be sacrificial in fighting for their communities. Thanks.
