TULAY CC Trust, Understanding & Learning Among Youth

Our purpose is to trust, understand and learn from each other.

Our CC members met each other for the first time at the first VPAR (Visions for Peace Among Religions) Seminar for youth in Bohol conducted by the Peacemakers Circle and a Vegetarian Feast and Animal Welfare Advocacy. Then, in 2006 another VPAR was sponsored by Bohol Goodwill Volunteers CC and the United Nations Fund for Population. After that, upon encouragement by Ms. Marites, Dr. Shakun, and Mr. Boni, we decided to organize formally. Our most memorable activity so far was when a Roman Catholic young person gave a Muslim young person a guided a tour of the local Roman Catholic church. It was a moving experience for both parties. The second one was when we organized a creative workshop. The name of our CC, TULAY, means Bridge in the Philippine language. Our next plan is to understand Islam through literature shared by our Muslim colleague. Our future plan is to visit remote areas in our province and inspire other youths and expand our membership. We dream of no more war in Mindanao.
