Catholic writers to launch 1st archdiocesan youth news bulletin


Almost 40 young writers from different parishes in the Archdiocese of Davao gathered at the Our Lady of Mt. Apo Parish Formation Center in Davao del Sur for a two-day planning and conceptualization of ‘Kalakbay Youth Newsletter,’ the official youth bulletin of the archdiocese of Davao.
“These young Catholic journalists will serve as a new generation of evangelizers using print media as a platform,” organizers said.
To come out monthly, the newsletter of the youth apostolate will be launched this October in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Davao Archdiocesan Youth Coordinating Apostolate (DAYCA).
Attendees contributed ideas and suggestions for the pre-conceived newsletter which were divided into sections such as news, feature and literary. People assigned as cartoonists, lay-out artist and photo journalists during the production of the newsletter.
The young writers were guided by their editorial consultants: Ms. Cheryl Vilog (DC Herald Proofreader), Mr. John Frances Fuentes (DC Herald News Reporter), Mr. Erick Hernandez (Kalakbay Managing Editor); and DAYCA director Fr. Jemasol Ortiz, DCD.
