8 000 jeunes du FRAT se préparent avant la messe avec le pape Léon XIV

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Approximately 8,000 young people aged 13 to 17 gathered at Porte Maillot in Paris on Saturday, September 26, to prepare for a Mass with Pope Leo XIV. The participants traveled from eight dioceses across the Île-de-France region, including areas such as Nogent-sur-Marne, Chelles, and the 19th arrondissement of Paris.

The morning gathering, organized by the FRAT group, included singing, personal testimonies, and prayer. FRAT holds annual meetings for thousands of Catholic youth from Île-de-France at locations such as Lourdes or Jambville to facilitate prayer and fellowship. Following the morning activities, the groups moved to the Concorde for an afternoon Mass presided over by Pope Leo XIV.
