Catholicism, Children & Teens, Religion & Spirituality 

For all the youth who are preparing to participate in World Youth Day 2002 in Toronto and in the preparatory "Days in the Dioceses," this book is designed to help young people have a more profound faith experience at the event. Inspired by the Pope's new message to young Catholics around the world and by the theme of this gathering, this handbook for use by individuals and groups is organized according to eight dynamic themes or "paths." These include: being "salt and light" in our time; living a moral life; the Church, an everchanging community; prayer, sacraments and celebration; justice and solidarity with the poor; and being a witness to the Gospel. The discussion of each theme is accompanied by thought-provoking selections from the Bible, Catholic tradition, the teachings of hte Pope, and many current reflections addressing the needs and aspirations of today's young adults. - from Amzon
