Youth Delegates Look to Impact World Council Assembly
The Youth pre-Assembly meeting of the World Council of Churches (WCC) has taken place in Porto Alegre, Brazil between Feb. 11-13, in which a great determination was found from young people to have their voices heard.
It is estimated more than 250 youth participants gathered to “connect, learn, share and see” how they might have an impact over the next two weeks.
A hugely diverse range of events were held including community-building, sharing in small “home groups”, regional meetings, daily prayers and Bible study, and preparation for the Assembly, as well as late-evening outings sponsored by local Brazilian youth groups
