On Thursday 4th October 2012, the first Info Meeting on the upcoming World Youth Day celebrations is being held by the Diocesan Youth Commission at the Chapel of Divine Mercy, Naxxar. The session, starting at 7pm, will brief interested participants about the preparations currently going on, locally and worldwide.

World Youth Day is an international celebration for young chirstians taking place every two to three years. The next edition, in July 2013, will be hosted in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The theme, chosen by Pope Benedict is “Go and make disciples of all nations” (Mt 28,19).

More than a million young people from all over the world are expected to participate, including a good number from Malta and Gozo. More details on the event on http://bit.ly/WYD13KDZ
