During the month of July, the parish of Our Lady of Perpetual Help (OLPH) held a raffle fundraiser to fund the attendance of delegates for the 2019 World Youth Day (WYD) scheduled for January in Panama

Due to the event being held in the month of January and not the usual July–August holiday period, it was difficult to recruit persons from the parish or its cluster to attend as a result of school and work commitments.

All monies raised by the parish for the 2019 World Youth Day will be donated to other parishes who wish to send representatives to this event but are unable to cover the entire cost. Parishes include Holy Cross, Santa Cruz and Mary Immaculate Queen of the Universe, Bourg Mulatresse.
