Sandhurst Youth Ministry is going to World Youth Day (WYD)and we couldn’t be more excited. Expressions of interest are invited from young adults aged 18-35 to join the pilgrimage from 29 July to 11 August 2023. 

The pilgrimage group will experience the World Youth Day celebrations, including festival events, gatherings with young Catholics from around the world and the Final Mass with Pope Francis. 

After World Youth Day, we will enter a retreat in Avila, Spain, where pilgrims will have a chance to reflect on their experience. 

The Diocese of Sandhurst and Catholic Education Sandhurst Ltd are both offering significant sponsorships to pilgrims who attend WYD. 

For parish-based pilgrims, the Diocese is offering half of the pilgrimage cost. Catholic Education Sandhurst will operate under their usual funding model where CES Ltd pays a third,  the employing school pays a third and the pilgrim pays the remaining third. These sponsorships do not cover additional costs such as travel insurance or other personal expenses. More information is available on the Sandhurst WYD website.  

Expressions of Interest close on Friday 10 March, 2023. 

For further information and the Expression of Interest form, please go to Sandhurst WYD website or contact the pilgrimage coordinator, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., with any questions.
