This year’s Catalyst participants were equipped for personal growth and prepared to tackle practical challenges. CLA included sessions such as “Personality Test” “Love Languages”, “Emergency Response” and “The Mind of Christ”.
Hands-on activities and team building games fostered resilience and unity. Powerful worship uplifted participants with joy and strength while prayer and ministry sessions brought healing and freedom.
As students neared graduation time, they shared their memorable moments and testimonies from their CLA experience, reflecting on the impact of the program in their lives in leadership ability, personal growth and spiritual advancement.
