Check back after World Youth Day for post-trip reactions and reflections!
World Youth Day (WYD) is a week-long celebration occurring every 2 to 3 years that gathers youth for cultural exchange, prayer, service, and community building. Pope Francis will attend along with delegates from schools and parishes worldwide.
MAGIS is a week-long Jesuit-run pre-WYD service immersion bringing together students of Jesuit institutions from across the globe.
