Portugal – 2 August 2023 - A large group of young people from the Salesian Youth Movement (SYM) and members of the Salesian Province of Mexico-Mexico (MEM) made a pilgrimage across the Atlantic to attend the 37th World Youth Day in Lisbon, presided over by Pope Francis. After departing by plane, they had a first experience on their way to WYD 2023, encountering a warm welcome and the great affection of the Community in Eiriz, Diocese of Porto, where they were welcomed by local families. They then had the opportunity to visit the Fatima Shrine, commenting on all the intentions, needs and gratitude of the people who "are in our lives...". They then set off for Lisbon to attend WYD 2023, marching to meet young people from all over the world who have heard the Pope's voice. This group of pilgrims to WYD is led by Fr Hugo Herrera Rosales, SDB, Delegate for Youth Ministry in MEM Province, accompanied by Fr Marco Antonio Aburto, SDB.
