Young People in Brazil for WYD per la GMG. Sr. Elizabeth Pastl Montarroyos FMA is responsible for the Salesian Youth Movement of Brazil (MGS). We asked her how the young people of her country are preparing for the big event of World Youth Day that will takes place this July in Rio de Janeiro. How are the members of the Salesian Youth Movement of Brazil living this time of preparation for WYD? The Salesian Youth Movement in Brazil is living this time of preparation for World Youth Day with great commitment and hope. Many young people are involved in the working groups in preparation for the World Youth Day activities and the meetings that will take place during those days, such as the continent meeting of SYM America July 18 to 21 with the theme
"Youth Evangelizing Youth� and the celebration of the SYM world celebration that will take place on July 24 with the participation of young people from around the world. These are days of great expectation, prayer, organization, deepening the theme of World Youth Day, and the study the documents of the Institute and of the Church, and the words of the Pope. This is a time of joy, with the opportunity for meeting many of the SYM who are living the same Salesian spirituality and will be in Rio. “Many of the SYM are also included in the preparation and welcoming of other young people who will participate in the days leading up to the encounter, i.e., the missionary week before the WYD, carrying out the great appeal that the pope has made to us "Go and make disciples of all nations.
