This weekend, on the Feast of Christ the King, the Church in England and Wales celebrates National Youth Sunday. On this day, we celebrate the young people in our parish and community and all the gifts and talents they share with us.
The theme for this year’s NYS is Significance taken from Christus Vivit, Pope Francis’ Apostolic Exhortation to young people: “For him, you have worth; you are not insignificant. You are important to him, for you are the work of his hands. That is why he is concerned about you and looks to you with affection” (Christus Vivit, 115).
Here are some photos from our celebration:
After the Mass, Youth Active Team has taken the young people to “Inflation”, Inflatable Theme Park in Bootle.
