Dear friends of JSVA,
Haven’t made any plans for the long Easter holiday? Want to spend a meaningful while thrilling Easter? Our second flagship project of the year “BOOM!” will certainly fulfill your wishes and expectations. We are delighted and would like to cordially invite both members and non-members to our annual Easter project “BOOM!”
The word ‘BOOM!’ may sound like another onomatopoeic description of explosion, however in our Easter Project we will be using this to show our desire of peace. “BOOM!” consists of 4 major events over a span of 3 weeks, and here are the details:
| Date | Event | Description | Venue | ||
| 31 March | Orientation Day | A series of games and a detective city tracing activity will be held. | Wah Yan College, Hong Kong | ||
| 7 April | Training Day | A seminar on volunteering will be given, equipping them with volunteering knowledge. A formal proposal and rundown of their service plan will also be required. | Diocesan Boys' School | ||
| 8 April to 15 April | Service Period | Each groups will be assigned to the service center, and each groups’ Services Day will be on twice day within this week. | Service Centre | ||

“BOOM!” is definitely the ideal way for participants to spend a meaningful Easter holiday. There’s a saying “Water dropping day by day wears the hardest rock away.” - As this proverb suggests, individually we may be weak and limited, but with many of determined youngsters upholding the same sense of responsibility. As the name suggests, our world is full of danger, conflicts and conspiracies; our world is like a bomb that may be ignited anytime, and it is everyone’s role to uphold peace. Through the medium of service, we hope that this sense of responsibility of upholding peace will be obtained. We hope everyone can ultimately achieve our theme this year – “Be the light at the end of the tunnel.”
If you are interested in joining “BOOM!”, please send a softcopy of the completed application form on or before the March 24, 2012 to app.jsva1112@gmail.com.
