We have a few people going from Bexley Deanery and a couple of girls contacted me from a neighbouring parish to say that they hadn't quite raised enough cash - I volunteered a personal donation since I am eager to see as many young people as possible attend this event which has the potential to change lives and open the way for young people to respond to a vocation from the Lord.
I encouraged them to be in touch via the internet - facebook, comments on blogs, start their own temporary blog or whatever. I would love to receive photos and stories for the blog. This World Youth Day is going to be the most blogged ever, I think.
If you are going, there are loads of activities over there, I know. Don't forget the essentials: make a good confession, make as devout a Holy Communion as you can, get the indulgence... and ask God what He wants you to do now.
