The JPII\nAward aims to support and celebrate the commitment and enthusiasm of young people\nwho are already actively involved in their church and in their local communities\nand invite them to reflect on their involvement. It also encourages young people,\nwho are not already involved, to become involved and to receive the benefits that\ncome from living out their faith in a real and tangible way. The Award should indeed\nmake them realise how important they are in their community and parish. It should\nbring hope and renewed life to those members of our faith community who may be feeling\nfearful about the future of our Church and finally it gives our clergy the opportunity\nto further develop their work with young people.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n\n
