As we look toward 2027, we are thrilled to begin preparing for World Youth Day, one of the most monumental global celebrations of our Catholic faith. Millions of young people gather from every corner of the world to pray, learn, encounter the Holy Father, and witness the universal Church in an extraordinary way.
Our Archdiocese will be organizing an official delegation for young adults ages 18+. For high school youth ages 16–17, participation will be organized through individual parishes. If your parish is considering bringing in high school students—or partnering with another parish—we would like to know so we can help connect parishes.
To help us with this, we invite all parishes to complete our WYD 2027 Interest Form. Whether your parish plans to organize a high school group, find another parish group, join the Archdiocesan young adult group, or simply wants more information, this form is the best way for us to connect and prepare well together.
More details will be shared in the coming months as plans take shape. Thank you for all you do to accompany young people toward Christ in meaningful and lasting ways.
