Despite the crisis the Catholic Church is currently going through, young Catholics are still showing an enormous hunger for God and a love for their faith, says Fr Ken Barker mgl, founder of the Missionaries of God\u2019s Love.<\/p>\n
Fr Barker spoke to The Catholic Weekly following a week-long evangelisation Summer School for young Catholics run by the Disciples of Jesus Covenant Community.<\/p>\n
Over 200 young people attended the School from 6 to 13 January at St Stanislaus College in Bathurst. It was one of the largest attendances at the annual event.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt a time when the Church is in crisis, you\u2019d think that young people might be just sort of staying away,\u201d said Fr Barker, Director of the Summer School.<\/p>\n
