Conceived and organised by the Events team of WYD DON BOSCO 23, the “Pray with us” concert brought together five groups of the international Youth Movement in a moment of prayer at the Church of São Paulo in Lisbon.
As part of the Youth Festival, promoted by World Youth Day Lisbon 2023, and with the aim of bringing together young people of different nationalities in prayer, the “Pray with us” concert brought together five groups from the International Youth Movement at St Paul’s Church.
Each group performed four songs, interspersed with meditations in English.
The first group to perform was from Angola and sang themes related to Mary. The second group came from Central America and sang on the theme of peace. The third group was from Poland and presented themes related to Don Bosco’s spirituality. This was followed by a group from France-Belgium who performed themes of praise and youth animation. The concert ended with the intervention of the United States of America who sang themes related to vocation.
This was a beautiful moment of prayer and faith sharing among the young people of the SYM.
