A MESSAGE TO OUR YOUTH WORLD YOUTH DAY 2027 – SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA

“Dear young people, your joyful presence, your thirst for truth and high ideals are signs of hope! Being young does not mean being passive, but rather means being tenacious in your efforts to achieve important goals, even if this comes at a price. Being young does not mean closing your eyes to difficulties: instead, it requires a refusal to compromise or be mediocre. It does not mean escaping or fleeing, but engaging rather in solidarity with everyone, especially the weakest. The Church counts on you and will continue to count on you who are generous and capable of great energy and noble sacrifices. For this reason, together with your pastors I ask you: do not isolate yourselves, but rather be ever more united among yourselves so that you may enjoy the beauty of fraternity and be always more fruitful in your actions.” - Late Pope Francis
This quote was spoken by Pope Francis in a prepared address for a meeting with young people in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, on June 6, 2015
