“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God” (Mt 5:8)

Today, 17 February, saw the publication of the Pope's Message to the youth of the world on the occasion of the 30th World Youth Day. This is the second WYD message from Pope Francis that follows the process of preparation for the next global event which will be held in Krakow in July 2016. The journey of reflection on the Beatitudes began with “Blessed are the poor in spirit ...” and now continues with “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God” (Mt 5:8). In 2015, like last year, World Youth Day will be celebrated at the diocesan level. We are confident that the Holy Father’s message, which was dated 31 January (Memorial of St John Bosco), can be a valuable aid for youth ministry all over the world.
