Next week we'll be in Lisbon for the 37th World Youth Day. Since 1984, young people from around the world have been gathering together with the Holy Father in celebration of our Faith. This week, on a special edition of the SLHOUR we remember the last 37 years of World Youth Days as we hear theme songs from Buenos Aires to Lisbon. This program first aired in August 2009 (and we keep adding WYDs). For more information about World Youth Day, visit us at slmedia.org/wyd
Email Deacon Pedro your comments, or find him on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram.
This program is available thanks to the support of our generous donors. Thank you for your donation to keep the SLHour on the air.
