The World Youth Meeting
of the Catholic charismatic renewal is one of the activities promoted by ICCRS
in preparation for the Golden Jubilee to be celebrated in the year 2017, but it
also serves to introduce the youth of the renewal to the entire
world.
Taking place in Foz do
Iguacu, Brazil, from the 10th to the 15th of July, 2012, it will gather about
five thousand young people from 120 different countries.
The program is varied,
including several meaningful activities for youth. The first activity programmed
is a pilgrimage with a cross as a great public manifestation of faith. The
program also offers pre-conference activities for the participants from abroad,
who will be able to choose from four missionary activities.
On the following days,
the program will include prayer and worship sessions, talks, formation
activities and Masses during the day, whereas in the evenings there will be
cultural and artistic presentations by the different countries participating in
the Conference.
Providing an
opportunity to enjoy the natural beauty of Foz do Iguacu, there will be a
different activity on Saturday: the participants will go on a walk to the
National Park of Iguacu. It will be a pilgrimage that includes spirituality,
sharing of experiences and contact with nature.
