The Pope video for the World Youth Day 2023
“When I go to the church in my neighborhood, I see only old people. Is the Church only for old people?” This is the question directed to Pope Francis that opens this Pope Video which coincides with World Youth Day. His response is direct: “If it becomes something for old people, it will die…. The Church needs young people so it doesn’t grow old.”
The video with the Holy Father’s new prayer intention, which he entrusts to the entire Catholic Church through the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network, and was created in collaboration with the Lisbon 2023 WYD Foundation and the Dicastery for Laity, Family and Life, is about young people and World Youth Day. Pope Francis’ message emphasizes his invitation that young people quickly take the path of bearing joyful witness to the Gospel.
