Peru and Brazil: the WYD has no boundaries and those who cannot personally attend the event find other ways to follow the event. Young Peruvians, for instance, received a message from Sydney, from the president of the Youth Bishops Commission in Peru, mgr. Gabino Miranda. "Join us writes the bishop in prayer and in joy". The bishop speaks of a "young Church gathered around the Pope", "longing to be disciple and missionary" and to "receive the strength of the Holy Spirit to be a witness amidst the world in which we live, study, work, in everyday life". The archdiocese of Belo Horizonte in Brazil planned three days of events. On Saturday 19th from the afternoon to the evening they will share moments of music, culture and catechesis, then they will watch the live broadcast from Sydney, then the metropolitan archbishop of Belo Horizonte, mgr. Walmor Oliveira de Azevedo, will open the vigil of prayer that will be held all night in the Cathedral of "Nossa Senhora da Boa Viagem". On Sunday morning at 6, the young will take part in the Way of the Cross, from the cathedral to "Praça do Papa", where Mass will be celebrated.” ” ” ” ” ” ” “
