A journey full of stages and appointments

Since 1973, the date of May 1st has become a regular appointment for many young people, with specific programs and initiatives from year to year.

The countdown for the next May Day ends in 2021. The event should have taken place in just over a month but it was decided to postpone it to address the needs of today’s world.

And this is precisely the starting point of the event. The title of May 1st will be “Now“. It is a call to action that expresses the urgency of young people to act immediately, focusing on the most significant social and personal themes of our time.

It will be a one-year journey that will touch various stages, experiences and choices that claim a change.

One of the many initiatives proposed is the Time out, a minute of prayer for peace to be done every day at 12:00. There was a special time out for this pandemic on March 25, when the leaders of the Church and Pope Francis joined all the young people of the world to recite the Our Father.

But the Time out continues, do you join us?
