Why World Youth Day
A week that can shape a whole life of faith.
World Youth Day gathers young Catholics from every continent with the Holy Father for prayer, catechesis and celebration. For many, it is the moment faith stops being something they were taught and becomes something they own.
ENCOUNTER
Catechesis, Reconciliation, the Way of the Cross, the vigil and the closing Mass with the Pope — alongside hundreds of thousands of young people.
BELONG
Our youth discover they are part of a Church far bigger than Katong — and come home with friendships that carry them through.
RETURN TO SERVE
Pilgrims commit to giving back after Seoul: [e.g. sharing at Masses, serving in catechesis, Youth Ministry and RCIY]. Your gift is an investment in our parish's next generation of leaders.
“Take courage; I have overcome the world.”
John 16:33 — theme of WYD Seoul 2027
