World Youth Day 2027: Expression of Interest

We are now beginning to gather expressions of interest (no commitment) from youth, young adults, and graduating students who may wish to learn more and prayerfully discern participation in World Youth Day 2027 in South Korea.

The purpose of this step is simply to:

  • Understand the level of interest across our community
  • Help us begin thinking about possible logistics such as travel coordination
  • Allow us to responsibly plan and potentially leverage group numbers moving forward

At this stage, I would like to emphasize that:

  • This is information and interest only
  • There is no commitment, registration, or financial obligation
  • This is not a parish- or school-sponsored trip
  • Any future participation will remain fully guided by your Diocesan direction and safeguarding policies

🗓 Kindly submit expressions of interest by May 15 to help us gather an initial sense of numbers.

For those under 18, we encourage that this be reviewed together with parents as part of the discernment process.

We remain committed to working collaboratively, respecting parish leadership, and supporting this initiative in a way that is responsible, transparent, and aligned with the Diocese.

Thank you once again for your partnership in helping our young people encounter Christ and grow in faith and leadership.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to connect further.

God bless,

Don Gimena
