Next appointment: the WYD in Brazil

The World Youth Day is coming up. Many young people around the world are preparing to reach the Dioceses of Brazil where they will live a few days of sharing, meetings, prayer and missionary experience (July 17 to 20) and then (21 to 28 July) the great encounter in Rio de Janeiro with Pope Francis.
Several young people from our communities too (about thirty), accompanied by Betharramite religious will be present. It is an important moment in the life of the congregation: Fr Gaspar has deeply wished that this event should be lived in the context of the 150th anniversary of the death of Saint Michael. That is why during the days leading to the WYD in Rio, the young people will gather in the community of Paulinia, where they will be put up by different families of the Parish. Here, along with young people from Paulinia and from different Parishes of the Diocese, they will make this remarkable ecclesial experience, take up the challenge of Saint Michael Garicoits and “share the same happiness”.
