WYD July 2013

Get Ready for a life-changing pilgrimage to Brazil!

Rio de Janeiro will be a fantastic location to hold the festivities; the Brazilians are full of spirit and zest.  Rio will be host to the World Cup of 2014 and Olympics of 2016, but neither event will compare to the presence of WYD and millions of joyful Catholic Youth! The city and the country are rich in Catholic culture and natural beauty.

Prepare for Rio 2013!!!

The World is Watching - Madrid 2011

WorldYouthDay.com Media captured a group of pilgrimage guides from JMJ Youth/Youth in Europe evangelizing a few days before the official start of World Youth Day! 


In this video you will see many of our guides gathering together in a plaza in Madrid, Spain singing in fellowship with other pilgrims and all-in-all having a great time!  

Epic Video Promo 

This video has been the number one watched video on YouTube for World Youth Day (WYD) in Madrid 2011.  It has also been featured on the official 2011 website for WYD as well as seen on television networks, conferences and other media outlets.
This video gives an overview of what we are all about.  Of course, when it says Youth In Europe it is not referring only to youth from Europe but it is referring to the company name that we were known as before. 

What is a Pilgrimage?

Founder of JMJ YOUTH (formerly Youth In Europe) talks about the value, significance and importance of pilgrimage.  It is more than just a trip.  it is an opportunity to leave the clutter behind, to venture out for an encounter with others and with God.

This video will help you to be better prepared for World Youth Day.  It is ideal that you share this with all of those traveling with us, and yes, that means chaperones too.  All too often, those who do not watch this video and read our website are the ones who find the pilgrimage most difficult.
