Young Catholic pilgrims from around the globe are getting ready to jetset off to Lisbon, Portugal for World Youth Day 2023. 

We’ll be introducing you to some of the pilgrims coming from the Diocese of Brooklyn, including Bella Wagner, who will need a little extra room in her suitcase.

Accompanying the masses of young people will be 2,600 priests, all prepared to hear confessions. 

It wouldn’t be World Youth Day without an official hymn. Each event has its own unique sound reflecting on the theme of the pilgrimage.
