Summary: | World Youth Day (WYD) 2016 gathered a powerful body of youth, who are now asking;
What’s next? Without a doubt this group of young people is the promising group within
the Church. They are brave and consciously living their faith. They have lived something
that has radically transformed them. There are not many of them, yet they are strong.
They are excelling and forming a wedge in a growing secular environment. What about
those who are left? What’s happening with them? Who are today’s Polish youth and what
dilemmas are they facing? As the results of a study completed on the topic of youth and
their spirituality shows, we can generally argue that the currently growing generation is
a consumerist one. We are also experiencing a growing discrepancy between declared
faith, active practice of faith, and morality. Today’s youth, essentially, are not concerned
with matters of faith and carry a negative image of the congregation and priests. What
indications may be implemented in the ministry of our youth after such a great event as
the World Youth Day? What is the ministry of youth and how can we realize it? |
