Calasanctian Youth Day at WYD Lisbon 2023
Rise Up
Rise Up is the Piarist attitude needed to live the next Calasanctian Youth Day in the context of World Youth Day, which this year will be held in Lisbon, August 1-6. The official motto of WYD is “Mary arose and departed without delay” (Lk 1:39). In the exhortation, Pope Francis also quotes the encyclical Christus Vivit: “Where does Jesus send us? There are no frontiers, there are no limits: he sends us to everyone. The Gospel is not for some but for all” (CV 177).

WYD LISBON 2023
Celebrating our faith
Mary of Nazareth is the great figure of the Christian journey. She teaches us to say yes to God. She was the protagonist of the last edition of WYD and will be so once again in Lisbon.
In the biblical episode of the Visitation, the action of standing up presents Mary as both a woman of charity and a missionary woman. Leaving in haste represents the attitude depicted in Pope Francis’ indications for WYD Lisbon 2023: «may young people’s evangelization be active and missionary, for this is how they will recognize and witness the presence of the living Christ».
Addressing young people in particular, and challenging them to be courageous missionaries, the following was written by the Pope in the Apostolic Exhortation Christus Vivit: « Where does Jesus send us? There are no borders, no limits: he sends us everywhere. The Gospel is for everyone, not just for some » (CV 177).
