Ecumenical International Youth Day 2023 Toolkit

Young People and Their Voices from the Warzones
Andrei Ursulean
Stefan Wilson

This year’s theme for Ecumenical Youth Day is Young People and Their Voices from the Warzones. Political insurrection and ideologies have permeated the fabric of society. This has caused division and hatred, resulting in the loss of innocent lives.

Addressing the realities young people face in the world today represents a moral imperative for and crucial aspect of peace-building. Providing them with access to education and psychological support is the only solution for their empowerment. Through this toolkit, the World Council of Churches, via youth engagement in the ecumenical movement, extends an invitation and encourages all member churches and ecumenical partners to participate in this year’s Ecumenical International Youth Day. This year, there is a special desire to draw attention to the situation of young people who live the hard realities of wars, conflicts, and injustice. This document contains resources and suggested ways to observe this day and adapt it to your context.

Alucinante exposición de los stewards durante el Comité Central

“Hay algo que siempre les digo a jóvenes como ustedes cuando empiezan el programa de stewards – sean muy cuidadosos porque la exposición al virus ecuménico es alucinante y comienzan a pensar sobre la iglesia de una forma muy diferente– y eso no es malo”, señaló el Rev. Prof. Dr. Jerry Pillay, secretario general del CMI, en su discurso de bienvenida a los jóvenes de todas partes del mundo que el 16 de junio fueron acogidos en el Centro Ecuménico como stewards en preparación de la próxima reunión del Comité Central que tiene lugar del 21 al 27 de junio en Ginebra.

 “There’s one thing I always say to young people when you start off in the stewards programme– be very careful, because the ecumenical bug gets you as this is a mind blowing exposure and you start to think about the church in a very different way – and this is not a bad thing", remarked World Council of Churches (WCC) general secretary Rev. Prof. Dr Jerry Pillay in his welcoming address to the young people from all over the world who were welcomed at the Ecumenical Centre on 16 June as stewards, in preparation for the upcoming central committee which is taking place 21-27 June in Geneva.
