Kevin Weiss - WYD'08 (Sydney), WYD'11 (Madrid)Responding to the call for youth from Pope Benedict, I had the opportunity to go to World Youth Day in Sydney in 2008 and my life has never been the same. Every time I go to Mass, I’m reminded of the closing Mass at Randwick Racecourse. Witnessing an enormous congregation of over 500,000 Catholics, celebrating the Eucharist together, changes everyone's relationship with the Church. I learned so much about our Faith, my friends, and myself. Following my first world youth day experience, I look forward to this entirely new experience of Madrid. In 2008, we “received the power when the Holy Spirit came upon us” (Act 1:8), I look forward to this summer and being "Rooted and built up in Jesus Christ, firm in the faith" (Col 2:7).
