XX WELTJUGENTAG KOLN 2005


“Are you capable of giving yourselves, your time, your energy and your talent to the well-being of others? Are you capable of love? If you are, Church and society can expect great things of each one of you.” (PJPII, WYD'95 Manila)

“The Church is young. Young people should not be thought of as being consumed by the trappings of consumerism or pleasure. They are not materialistic, nor egotistical. “The opposite is true: The Youth want the Greater”- and the Good. They are against injustice, inequality, oppression; they are for freedom. “They are very open to Christ.” (Benedict XVI, Cologne 2005)
