Mary, Star of the New Evangelisation Praesidium (Junior)-Church of the Holy Trinity

Mary, Star of the New Evangelisation, Junior Praesidium (MSOTNE) was set up in November 2015
by our former president, Sean Shrimpton. We started with 5 members and have grown to 15 members
as of 2023. When we first began,members would head down to different catechism classes to recruit our members.
Additionally, our parish has a yearly Confirmation attachment programme where confirmands would attend our
meetings for a period of time before they receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. After which, they can decide
if they would like to continue their spiritual journey with us.

As young legionaries, many of us are still in school, and our legionary work tends to be more spiritual in nature.
These include praying for others, for people that have asked for our prayers and for ourselves. We also try our best to make
time for other legionary work like helping out at our church canteen,serving as altar servers and leading prayers in our parish.
Our Praesidium strongly believes that a way to someone’s heart is through food! We host potlucks and get togethers to introduce
new members into our praesidium and to catch up with one another about our personal and spiritual lives regularly.

The goal of our praesidium is to journey with young impressionable youths and we hope that we can provide them with a space to
understand their faith on a deeper level. We would also like to thank Mother Mary for always being there for us and supporting us
especially through the difficult Covid-19 period.
