On February 26th, the young people of the Salesians of Mirandela, who are preparing for WYD Lisbon 2023, changed their usual meeting of preparation for a vigil for peace. At a time when war between Ukraine and the Russian Federation is ravaging Eastern Europe, claiming human lives, and causing enormous destruction, the 25 young people who are on their way to this great meeting of youth, wanted to accept the challenge proposed by Pope Francis and unite in prayer.
This is the group’s 5th monthly meeting to prepare their participation in WYD Lisbon 2023, through organization of activities, dynamics, testimonies, and moments of prayer.
