So the bobbywrites team caught up with Imcs Pax Romana Ghana and decided to interview them on the biggest Catholic conference ever
First, can you tell us, What does Napac stand for?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana: Napac is the acronym for National Pax Conference
Bobbywrites: Can you tell us a bit about Napac?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana:Napac is a biennel event that seeks to bring all alumni and current pax members under one umbrella. The maiden edition was held last two years at KNUST and the second edition is coming on at UCC from 24th-28th July, 2013. The main aim is to bring members from over 50 institutions under one umbrella.
It is to create bond and strengthen our social life as well as spiritual life
Bobbywrites: Oh, so its more like a Mega Pax Romana Conference?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana: Yes, unlike the meetings attended by only executives, the 2010
Bobbywrites: What should Catholics students be expecting this year?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana: The 2010/2011 national executives thought of a platform of bringing all members together, well, they should be expecting more..from talks on health, the church,relationships,entrepreneurship and not forgetting the entertainment aspect..an excursion,sports festivity,quiz and a mega dinner,awards and fundraising night
Bobbywrites: It’s Fully Packed. Do you restrict this program to Catholics alone or all are invited?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana:
IMCS PAX ROMANA is open to all catholic students and those who have special interest in the movement..hence this conference is open to all but especially CATHOLICS
Bobbywrites: Is there a reason for your choice of location this year, or it is just co-incidental?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana: Yes, it because the national seat of pax romana is in the Central/Western zone which we call zone 1..and UCC was chosen
Bobbywrites: Well said, can you tell us at least one major speaker we shouldn’t miss?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana: The archbishop of cape coast diocese
The vice chancellor of ucc
And. The national chaplain of the movement
Bobbywrites: That’s massive. These are seasoned speakers. So I’m guessing the topics would range from Spiritual to social and economic related issues
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana: Yes, topics include….”the social doctrines of the catholic church, exposition on the year of faith and evangelization. How can a pax member keep his/ her relationship pure? Among others
Bobbywrites: What is your take on the vision of the new Pope on lavish living in the church?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana:
Pope Francis is a man who really understands charity and ready to lay down his life for the poor….as catholics we need to follow his teachings and offer charity to the poor in the church and society…
Bobbywrites: We hope he remains an inspiration to all young catholics
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana: He surely will
Bobbywrites: When does Napac end?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana:
28th July, its a four day program
Bobbywrites: What will be your final words for all those who haven’t planned to be there?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana: They should please try as much as possible to be there because it is going to create a lot of avenues for them interms of jobs, relationships and also build their social and spiritual life.it is so affordable (gh35)and a would be achieved during this conference
Bobbywrites: We are talking about food and accommodation?
Imcs Pax Romana Ghana: The gh35 caters for accomodation,feeding(3 square meal a day) and excursion. It also caters for dinner as well
Bobbywrites: That’s inspiring to know
