Day 2: Saturday, 12th October 2013
"Courage or Compromise: Catholics in a Sex-Crazed World"
Session from 9 am to 5 pm
"Many Teenagers and young adults find living their faith in today's sex-crazed world most challenging! In a thought-provoking and humorous way, Martin Jalleh presents the Catholic perspective on tough issues like sex. This session is strictly for young people above 18 years old (with the exception of Form 5 students)

-Fr. Robert Daniel (11th Oct. 2013 Parish Bulletin)

The first Day sessions saw an overwhelming number of participants from young and old, the youth and students from university/colleges in Kelantan (KCYS - Kelantan Catholic Youth Society) and older parishioners, about 120 listening intently to the truly humourous presentation interpersed with stories and quips by Martin Jalleh. He had the audience in stitches from the minute he started until the end of the sessions. Sharing his experience as a facilatator for youth and confirmation camps thoughout the years and as a layperson living his Catholic Faith in Ipoh, he nevertheless succeeded in bringing the right message to his audience. And I am sure all of us will remember the messages and the meaning behind all the jokes and stories he told in his effable and striking manner for a long time to come.
Praise God for Martin Jalleh!
