Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea - November 2025 - The Youth Camp ‘300 Young people for Mary’, organised by the Association of Mary Help of Christians (ADMA) in Port Moresby, brought together 110 young people from different schools and parishes from 7 to 9 November. Founded by the late Fr Valeriano Barbero, SDB, the camp promotes values of leadership, effective communication, community initiative and strengthening faith in Jesus Christ, with Mary as guide and intercessor. The main activities included: adoration and penitential liturgies; a conference on marriage; group activities on the new saints; and spiritual reflection led by Fr Gregorio Bicomong, Superior of the Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands Visitation (PGS). The camp was realised through the efforts of several young leaders and Sister Alice Fulgencio, FMA, who provided spiritual guidance. The participants expressed great gratitude for the experience, which had a positive impact on their spiritual and personal growth.
