YOUNG PEOPLE PREPARE FOR WORLD YOUTH DAY


VATICAN CITY, MAR 16, 2005 (VIS) - At 5 p.m. tomorrow, 15,000 young people from the diocese of Rome are scheduled to participate in a traditional annual meeting of reflection and prayer on the Pope's Message for the 20th World Youth Day (WYD) on the theme: "We Have Come to Adore Him." The celebration will be held in the basilica of St. John Lateran and will be presided by Cardinal Camillo Ruini, vicar general for the diocese of Rome.

  Tomorrow's program includes teaching on the Eucharist delivered by Daniel Ange, a French monk and founder of the "Jeunesse lumiere" movement. There will also be songs and witnesses, as well as a moment of Eucharistic adoration during which the central points of the Message for World Youth Day will be considered. In closing, a message from the Holy Father will be read out. The 20th WYD will be held in Cologne, Germany in August.
