This year's programme focuses on the theme of Identity and Discipleship, how we can be strongly rooted to our faith in Christ. The theme is based on the World Youth Day 2011 theme, of being "Rooted and Built Up in Jesus Christ, Firm in the Faith." (Colossians 2:7)

The main programme for EDYD 2011 includes:

• The Mass
• Post-mass Light refreshments

Guest Performers: Walk on Water (WOW) will be performing!

Without revealing too much, we promise you a night of great fellowship among our East District youth parishes, and basically, we want to celebrate The Mass together and discover new meaning to this daily event, which happens everyday in our church, that is so easily taken for granted and forgotten.

We want to be "Rooted in Christ".

Come and join us!
