SUNDAY WORSHIP

WORLD YOUTH DAY FROM LISBON

听

I'm Monica. I'm 17. I've come with the Diocese of East Anglia to Lisbon for World Youth Day. I'm really excited to be here because. We saw the Pope really close up a couple of days ago. That's never happened before. I was really excited and now I get to properly hear him speak and stuff. It's going to be really good. I think it will be really inspiration.听

听

My name is Miguel. I'm from Portugal and this is just an amazing thing. I'm always happy walking around, meeting every single people from all over the world and it's just awesome. And I have seen already the Pope and I just I felt something in my heart. It was just.听

听

My name is Jake, I'm from Cumbria. I've loved the week. It's been very spiritual. Very good to hang out with people the same age and with the same beliefs as me. Paul Francis, his speaking and his teaching in the masses and in his speeches have been very, very powerful and it it's touched me because it shows how much he cares about young people.听

GREG FINN

Good morning. I'm Greg Finn and I'm in Lisbon, Portugal. World Youth Day is. The huge gathering of hundreds of thousands of young Catholics from across the world. The theme of World Youth Day is rise up, inspired by Mary as she rose up to go and see her cousin Elizabeth and give her the miraculous news that she was to have a baby Jesus. The Holy Father is encouraging the young people here to look at their lives and think what do I rise up for? What do I stand up for in my life? I have travelled here to Lisbon with the Diocese of Lancaster and diocese from across the UK, have sent groups of young people to come here to Lisbon and take part in the celebrations. Whilst here they will attend catechesis, they will join in with huge worship concerts and will attend the masses. On Saturday night, the overnight vigil leads in to the climax of World Youth Day on Sunday morning, when the Holy Father, Pope Francis, will lead the World Youth Day mass.听

GREG FINN

Heavenly Father, we thank you for World Youth Day. We ask you to bless all of the young people who are here learning more about you and growing in love of you. May they take what they have learned here back home with them and share the love of God with their families, friends and communities.

Right now I'm in the city of Joy, which contains the vocations fair for World Youth Day. I'm here with my charity, the Mark 10 mission, which is an organisation sharing the gospel in Catholic primary schools across the UK. We have a passion. For children to meet with Jesus. I'm joined today by my good friend Father Columba Jordan, who is a Franciscan Friar of the renewal. He will sing a song for us called rest on us. It invokes the Holy Spirit, inviting him to rest upon our lives.听

REST ON US 鈥� FR COLUMBA JORDAN

听

My name is Anna, so I'm originally from Falmouth, but I am currently working in Exeter. Honestly, I think that the theme of you know, sort of Mary arising and going is so applicable to World Youth Day because if you think of the effort that she had to put into that to go and travel to see Elizabeth and the amount of effort that we've all had to put in to come here to Portugal, yeah, we're meeting him from all over the world. We've travelled an awful lot further than we. Have when we do get up and we go, we can do something incredible like this, especially from a country like the UK, where maybe there aren't as many Catholics. So we don't have that church community in the way that a lot of the other countries here do that we forget that we are part of this wider. Global community and kind of seeing the evidence of that is quite astounding really.听

听

My name is Gabriel. I'm from Canada, but I recently just moved to the UK and World Youth Day just means a lot to me because that international aspect really speaks to everything that I've experienced. Having been born in the Philippines, moving to Canada as a kid and then moving to England. And now being here and surrounded with all these different people, all these different cultures getting to hear everybody's stories, I like the way that the theme promotes of sort of movement, a sort of. Action. I think that that's kind of built in our hearts from Jesus. So we're not meant to stay still. We're not meant to be alone. We're meant. To be out. There in the. World spreading the good news, sharing our own experiences.听

听

I'm really excited. I can't wait to see the Pope. We're quite close to maybe where he's going to. Come past. So really hoping to say hi or something. So yeah, the atmosphere is just amazing and you know, we're so grateful to be here at the age of 22, have been wanting to come for so long. So yeah, it it's been like a real opportunity.听

GREG FINN

The Holy Father Pope Francis has just arrived in Parque Eduardo. The 7th and half a million young Catholics are here to greet him. The anticipation has been building all afternoon, and as the Pope passes through the crowds on his way to the stage, everyone is cheering and chanting. His name? Pope Francis watches on as young performers dance and sing as part of the welcome ceremony. The Pope then addresses the crowd and tells them that there is room for everyone in the church, including those who make mistakes.听

Who fall or struggle?听

As Francis leaves the stage, the World Youth Day theme song called There's haste in the air, rings out around the park with the crowd joining in and clapping as one.听

THEME SONG

听

I'm Rachel and I am from Manchester, Sulphur diocese. I'm originally from Hong Kong but now in Manchester so currently today. We have done the catechesis rise up with Bishop Barron. I went back home to Hong Kong this year, actually. So when I visited the cathedral, I just sat in there and I just really. Had a sense. Of the word. Go didn't really know what that meant, but later on this year I've been really involved in, like different things. With the Catholic charisma. Take this year. I felt like it was a sort of like a sense of mission. And then yesterday actually during the opening ceremony, there was a word go and I was just like, whoa, that linkage for me was just amazing and that it just really sort of reiterated, OK, it wasn't just my imagination in a way. It was just really a sense of missioning and this was. Just spreading the word and just being disciples and discipleship in general.听

听

I'm Dilna. I'm from the Diocese of Salford.听

And my name is Diane. I'm Dilna鈥檚 sister and I'm also from the Diocese of Salford. Yesterday we saw the pool we attended the opening ceremony, which is really beautiful to watch. My sister managed to get on someone's shoulders and get really close.听

To the pole which? Is good and hear him speak and be, you know, with such a huge gathering of young people from around the world, you know it's like 1 big family, you know, one big Catholic fan. Really you feel lonely sometimes in your Catholic faith?听

Especially as a university students, you almost feel embarrassed to show your Catholic faith as you go old. I think my sister's definitely, like, inspired me to kind of like, be less embarrassed about my faith trying not to get emotional. But you know, be less embarrassed. But then here as well, you see kind of even in depth like the whole community is just. Embracing their faith and personally we've gone through a lot of struggles like, but that's only made our faith even stronger. Like as each day goes by.听

A couple of years ago, our sister died. Actually, that was while I was at Krakoff World Deep Day and I had to leave. A little bit early, but that. You know, even though I was here, I was at Krakow for a couple of days. I still I think the words I was able to hear through the priest, I was able to go back. When to my sister's funeral, actually speak to my parents, speak to my family and give them strength. But yeah, God has been our strength through that journey, he is our rock.听

100% and we can see that with full yeah, mind, soul and body like he is definitely wouldn't be stood here if it were.听

But yeah, yeah, he's all right. Yeah. And it's nice to like, share that joy with everybody else as well, you know? Yeah. Joy isn't just when it's all good and happy. It's also through the pain and through. The struggle as well. That's when you know it's him. Because in, in, in a normal situation it wouldn't be easy to have that joy, but that when you know it's a divine. Through this struggle.听

We'll see.听

FR COLUMBA JORNAN

So hi, my name is Father Columba Jordan, I'm a Franciscan of the renewal.听It's just so different from anything else you'll ever go to the all just the on the human level. Just the joy and the freedom of the young people. I particularly love like all of the Mediterranean鈥檚, the Italians, the Spanish. They're, they're just, they're exploding with energy and joy, and I find that just very freeing. Myself, just to be free, and it was cool to see that with our kids too. So this song, Holy, is his name. It's this was actually one of the first songs that I ever sang that was like a Christian song for me. This really reminds me of being a teenager, and it's also it's Our Lady song. As a teenager, when she had just found out she was expecting Jesus, no pressure and had gone immediately and this. Kind of. Her response to her having a need was to meet somebody else's need was immediately to to enter into service and love and giving. Move do something if you believe in God, that means. That means, in a sense, doing something love looks like something.听

BIBLE READING LUKE 1 39-45

Mary visits Elizabeth in those days, Mary set out and went with haste, who are today in town in the Hill Country where she entered the House of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the child leaped in her womb and exclaimed with a loud cry. Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And why has this happened to me at the mother of my Lord comes to me for as soon as I heard the sound of your greeting, the child in my womb leaped for joy. And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfilment of what was spoken to her by the Lord.听

FR PASCHAL UCHE

A very good morning. My name is Father Pascal, Uche. I've come all the way from Brentwood diocese and I am currently in Lisbon and I've made my way this morning from Fatima, a place of tremendous significance. Back in 1917, Heaven touched earth through Our Lady appearing to three shepherd children. And bringing them a message of God's love through salvation and what we need to do to respond to his love. Even so, being in that very prayerful space, it's been awesome to then come to the heart of Lisbon, where there is a festival of joy and activity and life as literally hundreds and thousands of young Catholics gather from all around the world at the call of Pope Francis, the vicar of Christ. Who summons us to hear a particular word and to rise up to a particular challenge? This year, World Youth Day has the theme. Mary arose and went with her. And in those words, we're to capture the scene of how Mary first heard the word of God. Held that in her heart and then in her womb, and then went with haste to share that joy and to share in the joy of Elizabeth, who was also pregnant at six months with John the Baptist. So that scene of joy is really what we're being called to. Relive in these days and in our lives. Pope Francis was with us yesterday and he spoke, though 86 years old with such passion and vigour and such love. He spoke to us about how we are called uniquely by name. That the heartbeat of God literally, uniquely beats for us and summons us to live afresh for him. It's a word that resounds deeply into our hearts and has struck us all. And it's something that we don't just hear when we go to liturgies, but we're living as we're travelling through the streets of Lisbon, whether that's in the random encounters with people that turn out to have these beautiful connections, like just the other day, all the difficulties of waiting long hours in a queue to get lunch or to go to the toilet. In all of these strange happenings and encounters, the invitation is to meet Christ, to be encountered by his word, and to share in the joy of being Christians, of being Catholics. And that's been something awesome. That's been something really wonderful. This now is my 4th World Youth Day. It was Sydney first, then Spain, Krakoff and now Lisbon, my first as a priest. And what a privilege it's been to be here. What a privilege it's been to lead a group and to serve and to watch the young people grow in faith and in love. I've been changed by this. But actually I can go back to my first World Youth Day where I was changed by the joy of the Sisters of Life. They're a religious community and their joy and their charism and their heart spoke deeply to me. We often don't remember exactly what people say to us, but we seldom forget how we feel when we're with them, and I felt their love for Christ and his church, and it left in my heart a burning desire and a question. What does it look like to give my whole life to Jesus, and undoubtedly their witness has played a huge part of my own journey towards the priesthood and serving God in the way that I. Do today. In these days, young people will be called afresh. Tyrannically give their whole selves to. To give themselves for the glory of God and the good of their neighbour. In the unique way that only they can. There could be nothing more than this and they'll be invited to understand that they should settle for nothing less than this. It was in Sydney 2008 just to go again. That at the night vigil, a priest said to me, Pascal, look around you. This is the world as it should be. The world as it could be. Not only is it free from bitterness and strife. But it's filled with joy, laughter, meaning and deep life giving lasting peace. We, too now are called to arise, to go with haste, and to share the joy Of our faith.听

MAGNIFICAT 鈥� taken from the Overnight Vigil

So I'm Maureen. I live in Manchester. I think one of the first prayers that I learned growing up was Hail Mary. The rosary has been a very important part of my daily life and I really do appreciate everything that Mary is and who she is and. Somehow it just really fits well into my life and I don't know that I can do without it anymore. So yeah.听

听

So Mary, to me is a very special role model, especially for women I find because I see her as one spiritual mother. And she really meant a lot to me, in particular, a few years ago when my mum wasn't well and when my mum was having treatment for chemotherapy like I I could. I felt like I could talk to her while my mom wasn't well.听

听

In the name of the father and of the son. Amen.听

Holy Spirit. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy rule.听

The Lord is with you. Bless thy thou most women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of.听

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.听

听

Our prayers will now be read by a group of young people from Plymouth Diocese.听

听

On this World Youth Day, we pray for all your creations in this world. Pour out your Holy Spirit on all flesh like you promised, so that we may bear witness to our Lord Jesus Christ. Drown is Lord in the ocean of your Divine Mercy and help us all to be a channel of your goodness to our neighbours. Like our mother, Mary's letters arise and go with haste to spread joy and peace all around the world. We offer this prayer to your Eucharistic heart through the Immaculate Heart. Of Mary. Amen.听

Heavenly Father, in imitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who was the perfect disciple. Help us to share your love with others, to meet people peacefully and joyfully, and to serve like our servant King. Give us a heart like Mary's a heart that is ready to receive, and one that opens for you forever. By opening our hearts like Mary did, may we recognise your call for us and always respond with a confident yes. Lord, we give you our hearts to love as you do, and our minds that you may think in us. Give us the grace to unite our will to your perfect will. So that we may fully receive the gift of true joy.听

听

Good and gracious. God, we thank you for all the blessings and experiences that world's Youth Day has offered us. Thank you for the friendships we've built the memories we've made, the silent ways you've transformed us, and we thank you for the gift of your mother. Lord Jesus, you've given us the bread for our journey. Let us not delay, hesitate, or be afraid. May we depart from World Youth Day like our mother has as she arose and went with haste, knowing that we carry with us your love strength. And mission. Amen.听

听

Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.听

Give us this day Our Daily Bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trust us against us and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.听

Who trespass against us, us not into temptation, but deliver us from.听

Amen.

Tony - So right now is the beginning part of the main event of World Youth Day. So we're about to have a night vigil, which is where the Pope is gonna address all the crowds gathered here, and then we're gonna sleep over in our sleeping bags, and we're gonna wake up in the morning, and we're going to have. I've just finished year 13 6th form in school and I'm waiting for my exam results, which will then determine which uni I'm going to go to. So yeah, I came here largely in petition for those for those results. And I feel like that's the situation that many of us are in. If not exams, it could also be vocations, careers, all these young people are coming here to decide what they're going to. Do in their future. Yeah. So there's a lot of potential in the air. There's a lot of nervousness in the air, but it's definitely a great place to be.听

听

My name's Isabelle from Peterborough. And right now we're at the the overnight vigil ceremony. The Pope currently talking. Don't know what he's saying though. They've just had, like the drones out and it's had, like, the rise up message to show to everybody and all of the different languages. So that everybody from around the world can understand. There's so many countries here within our own communities. I mean, within my own city, within Peterborough, I'd like to get more involved with sort of the cityscape. So taking care of our city, sort of littering the homelessness issue and also. We're just, you know, like preaching the word of God, like being able to show people that there is space for them. Everybody has, like sort of shot at redemption. Everybody can be accepted and love for who they are.

Hello. We just finished the final mass of the World Youth Day, 2023 Lisbon. It was a very beautiful celebration and how fitting that it was in the Feast of Transfiguration when Jesus takes Peter, James and John to the mountaintop. For a mountaintop experience, and Pope Francis gave us some very encouraging words of.听

What to do?听

When we come down from the mountain, he said. We are to shine. We are to listen to Jesus and we are not to be afraid when we go back. He also announced that the next World Youth Day gathering will take place in Rome in 2020. Right. And then the next World Youth Day in a big way will take place in South Korea 2027. So we're very, very excited for the. The feeling and the euphoria that surrounds the atmosphere right now is 1. In which? In my heart, I am so. Grateful for. So as Catholic priest, I often now my own prayers for you and ask God's blessings for you. The father, the son. And the Holy Spirit
