Vocations - The Inspired Fruit of FNE
As Catholic parents, we know that our duty to God is to raise our children so that they will live the vocation that God is calling them to. The FNE program…
Answering a call from our Lord to serve him by being a leader in our FNE Explorer Movement
Leaders in our FNE movement are generally not very important men or women as seen through society’s eyes. Most of us do not have great wealth, control a large company, or occupy a position of great honour, status, or power.
Yet you will help mould destiny. Becoming one of the most important people in our youth’s lives is within our power by being an FNE leader. Every child can become a great person and help change human history in positive ways that we can’t even begin to imagine.
It’s all about the youth
We are all about the youth that we lead and help. If we can guide them through our FNE Explorer movement and its program, we can help shape tomorrow’s future leaders. We can help them not only save their Soul, but they help save the souls of others. Their yes is a promise kept, being willing and able to help others and to see that their time on this earth is but just a brief moment compared to forever in the afterlife.
To live for and do the will of God and love him with our entire being is the example that we, as FNE leaders, can and will set for FNE youth to follow.
In 100 years from now, it will matter not what job title we held, the collection of earthly belongings, but that the world will be a better place with happier people who someday follow in our footsteps.
Do we not all want to hear when we stand before our Lord to be judged – “Well done, good and faithful servant”?
Say yes
A big thank you to all of today’s leaders. To tomorrow’s leaders to be, say yes and come on board for an adventure of a lifetime as we help our youth explore their faith and the world around them constructively and safely. Contact us at info@fneexplorers.com
