Several groups of altar servers could be seen on Monday in different basilicas in Rome — including the Basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere and the Church of the Gesù — preparing and celebrating liturgies as part of their pilgrimage in the Eternal CIty. Besides liturgical celebrations, the altar servers will also participate in a variety of activities over the week, including cultural visits to museums and social exchanges with other international pilgrims as well as music, film, and drama festivals. A center providing vocational pastoral support and counseling has also been set up in a location near St. Peter’s Square.
Approximately 35,000 out of the 50,000 registered pilgrims are from dioceses spread across Germany. President of the Commision for Youth Ministry of the German Bishops’ Conference Auxiliary Bishop Johannes Wübbe said he was pleased about his country’s high youth participation this year.
