South Korean Auxiliary Bishop Peter Chung Soon-taek of Seoul has reminded young Korean Catholics to seek comfort through prayer in times of frustration.
"When you feel frustrated, think of the unconditional love of God and remember that God loves you just as you are,” he told a group of about 100 young people gathered in Seoul for a workshop, reported Fides, information service of the Pontifical Mission Societies.
Organized to mark the Year of Mercy, the meeting addressed the frustration and confusion that often afflict youth in parishes and among youth volunteer groups.
"It is always important to think about the love of God and understand that everything happens according to God's plan," Bishop Chung said.
The seminar, organized by the archdiocese's Department of Youth, aims to help young Catholics who participate in parish youth groups’ evangelization programs.
