They emphazued that the meeting of young people from all over the world on the 23rd to the 28th of July will mark the Church for the experience of unity and brotherly love. “In our website, www.rio2013.com, as you may have noticed, it has got a ‘new face’. We want you closer and closer as a fundamental element to build the nest WYD,” they said. Here in the Philippines, young pinoy’s are also preparing for the upcoming WYD even if it will be celebrated next year.

Meanwhile, Roy Villafania, a youth from Novaliches diocese said that he plans to join WYD 2013 Rio as a volunteer. “My preparations as of now are prayers and discernment, saving budget for the trip and studying the Brazilian Portuguese and its culture,” he added. In the organizers website, they are encouraging young people who frequently visit their website, to leave opinions and testimonies. “Enjoy and spread the spirit of WYD, no longer as a distant event but as something that belongs to the daily life of each one of us, from now on,” they said. “It’s time to let yourself be move and get ready to join us in this great and wonderful adventure. Take this dream from God’s heart and turn it into reality of fruits for the Church and the world,” they added. (Jandel Posion)
