(From our Sydney correspondents) – The colors of the Pacific Ocean landed in Australia, together with music, dance and culture from Tonga, Samoa, the Polinesian islands and Papua New Guinea. For many of the Pacific pilgrims, who showed up in great numbers, this is their first WYD and they have prepared for this event for a long time and in the best way. "We want to convey a different sense of faith to young people all over the world Father Emile Buchtein told Sir, who comes from the Polinesian Marquesas Islands made of respect for man and nature. We want people to learn from us to love and know the Ocean, which is the source of life for our peoples." "For us it is important to receive the power of the Holy Spirit, go back home and share this experience with our compatriots. We need hope: that is what we want from the Holy Spirit", James Taku said, who comes from Wewak, in Southern New Guinea. And then Rodney Havea, from Tonga, added: "All this is wonderful and I hope that this experience will bring the Holy Spirit inside my soul. I am happy because I had a chance to meet young people from all over the world and that I knew nothing about such as Poles, Germans and Italians".
