LIFT WEEKEND 2 (2009)



From Friday the 20th March to Sunday the 22nd of March LIFT organised the second weekend from a series of three weekends. Pierre Azzopardi (one of the persons who attended LIFT Weekend 2) took the initiative to share his personal experience with LIFT on our Blog.











LIFT weekend 2

The second LIFT weekend was truly a LIFT weekend. It was a 'Living In Friendship Together' weekend. I am here sharing my personal experience about this weekend based in these 4 words that captures all of what is LIFT about.


LIVING

In this weekend we practised the tools of LIVING.
1) Body Doing aerobics, going for a walk
2) Mind Training by playing board games in the evening
3) Spirit Attending Mass



IN


We entered IN deep sharing on Saturday.



FRIENDSHIP


1) I was given a lift back home.
2) Everyone respected each other.
3) Compliments were showed throughout the weekend.



TOGETHER


1) This weekend was a success because everyone worked TOGETHER, washing, cooking, etc.
2) TOGETHER with God, This weekend was wonderful.




Thanks a lot !
Pierre

Gheziez Lift,

Xtaqt nghaddi l-hsibijiet tieghi dwar Lift Weekend 2. Qabel Anton inkoraggieni biex nigi kelli idea ferm differenti ta' dak li kien se jigri fil-weekend. Pero bhal-hafna drabi fil-passat, Anton ikkonvincieni u gejt. U vera hadt pjacir, ovvjemant ghax kien hemm hbieb antiki tieghi bhal Anton, Ray hu Anton, Ray u Fr Ray etc etc imma anki ghaliex il-weekend kien organizzat tajjeb hafna u ghax sirt naf nies ohra iktar mill-vicin. Ezempju sirt naf mhux hazin il-Pierre u skoprejt kemm hu bniedem intelligenti u simpatku ukoll. Waqt id-diskussjonijiet sirt naf in-nies iktar mill-vicin u vera hemm it-tajjeb fihom, hafna ukoll. Minn wara l-weekend sirt naf naqra iktar il-Jane bil-karattru ferriehi taghha...habiba gdida li diga sirt inhossni komdu niftah qalbi maghha.

Nixtieq nghid proset il-Fr.Ray u l-core team ta' Lift tal-organizzazzjoni u l-energijja li jaghtu ghal-dan il-grupp. Lift huwa mudell ghas-socjeta ingenerali li juri li hawn hafna zaghzagh tajbin u b'valuri b'sahhithom.

Komplu sejrin hekk, il-Mulej min hemm fuq zgur kuntent hafna b'dak li qeghdin taghmlu.

Sahha hbieb,

Neville

Hello

I want to mention three points about these LIFT weekends by using the word LIFT itself.

1) LIFTs LIFT you from a floor to another. These Weekends permitted you to LIFT yourself to a higher level.

2) Do you want a face LIFT? You had a character and spiritual LIFT by these weekends.

3)I don't drive. So sometimes I have a LIFT by car by LIFT members. These weekends gave you a LIFT to a better life.
