It is with a great joy that we announce the launch of the “Christus Vivit” video project, prepared by young Catholics from around the world one year after the Synod of Bishops that was dedicated to them. In this series of 26 videos based on different chapters of “Christus Vivit”, they will guide us to read this document through their eyes and will help us discover how the words of the Holy Father resound in the hearts of the “Under30” generation.
Wondering what God is calling you to do with your life?

Eight monthly meetings ending with a retreat day, with personal spiritual guidance being available to participants alongside the programme.
