On Sunday, 21st February, 2010, the Cross and Icon, replicas of those given by Pope John Paul II during World Youth Day, were taken to the Parish Church of Saint Sebastian, Qormi. For this event, during which Mass was celebrated, the PLYG youth (Pastoral Liturgical Youth Group) from Saint Sebastian’s Parish grouped up with the youth from Saint George’s Parish. The Cross and Icon will be at Saint Sebastian’s Parish during this week. A variety of activities are being organized in this Parish, such as the penitential service for youths on Friday 16th February at Saint Sebastian Pastoral Centre.

The Cross and Icon will then be passed on to the youth of Christ the King, Paola, during next Sunday’s Mass at 7.30pm. After Mass, ZAK Tarxien and Paola Youths will be organizing an event for youth Route 53787.
