Community-weekend 2011 at the Thalhof (Breitenstein/Rax)
17. Mai 2011
From May 14th to 15th, 2011, young people from Maria Lanzendorf (Lower Austria) and from Southern Styria have spent two very nice, but partly rainy days at the Thalhof / Breitenstein (Rax / Lower Austria).
On Saturday, early in the morning the young people started from home to Breitenstein by train. From Breitenstein-station, they hiked up to the Thalhof (appr. 1.200 m sealevel).
On the way, the young people heard something about the vocation of St. Clair. And they had time to think about their own ways of life. A short part of the way, they walked with hidden eyes to feel how it is to be conducted by another person.
At the Thalhof, they had lunch, and then they continued the program with some workshops.
At 5 pm, they celebrated the hl. mass, and during the hl. mass, the young people performed some scenes taken from the life of St. Clair. The evening ended with being together and afterwards, it was closed with an eucharistic adoration.
On Sunday, after laudes and breakfast, they young people did some creative works - the weather was too bad to be outside as it was planed before! At 12 am, they had lunch.
Afterwards, at 2 pm, the young people had a hl. mass again, together with some parents and godfathers who have come to take the young people home again - the end of a nice weekend!
