26 Youths Represented Belize at Youth Conference | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Feelgood news of the day.  26 Belizean youths went to El Salvador to attend a youth conference that focused on contributing to the community.

 

"Twenty-six Belizean Youth Attend Conference in El Salvador to Learn to Contribute to Their Community.  Youth from six communities in Belize travelled to El Salvador over this past weekend (2 - 5 August) to attend a Bahá’í Youth Conference.  They returned Monday night full of excitement to execute the plans they made for themselves to serve their communities of Corozal, Belmopan, Belize City, San Pedro, San Ignacio, and Dangriga.  This Conference was attended by 660 youth ages 15 to 30 from Belize, Cuba, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and El Salvador.  It was one of 114 similar Regional Conferences being held from July through October around the globe on all continents and many island groups.  The purpose of these gatherings is 'to summon today's youth' of all faiths and backgrounds 'to put the needs of others before their own' in order 'to aid the spiritual and social development of those around them, especially ones younger than themselves.'"
