«Go and make disciples of all nations!» (cfr. Mt 28, 19)
Rio 23-28 July 2013

An itinerary in eight stages from December 2012 to WYD 2013 (July), one a month, to help you pray, reflect and proceed together.

We entrust our preparations to our Lady of Aparecida, to the patron saints and to the interceding saints proposed to us by the organizers. We have chosen the saints and blessed of America and Brazil, together with Pier Giorgio Frassati and Blessed John Paul II. We are starting with Pier Giorgio, a very dear friend who has preceded us even in our commitment in Catholic Action.

We will be following this itinerary during the liturgical year, meditating on the WYD theme and reading the messages by Benedict XVI while remembering that we are celebrating the Year of Faith, the 50th anniversary of EVCII and the 20th anniversary of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Our heart beats with the local Church and with the universal Church!

The structure 
– a biblical thought on the theme «Go and make disciples of all nations!» (cfr. Mt 28, 19) (Romano Penna)
– an account of an experience of faith and mission of a young CA member
– a presentation of a witness of holiness (from the official site)
– a reflection on the Creed with a quotation from EVCII (Stella Morra)
– the reading of a paragraph from the Pope’s message (eight in all)
