From 18 to 20 October, Nalanda Youth Centre leaders and core members gathered at Wisdom Park for their annual Fuel-Up Camp, to review both personal and organisational progress, and chart Youth Centre’s direction for 2026.

With guidance from Youth Mentor, Sis. Nandinī Tan, and Youth Centre senior leaders Bro. Yeo Disheng and Bro. Ajit Lim, the youths learned about the spirit of a Buddhist youth leader, as well as how to uplift and connect with others with care. In group discussions, heart-to-heart conversations and fellowship activities, youths shared their personal reflections, made aspirations, contributed to programme planning for 2026 and strengthened the spiritual friendship among one another.

We rejoice over the learning spirit and growth of the youths. May the youths move forward imbued with learning spirit, a heart of care and renewed energy to continue deepening their faith and Dhamma practice! Sadhu anumodana!
