21.01.2022 No morning plenary for Day 3, but we were overwhelmed by the exitement and then sincerity in the room during yesterday's celebrations and adorations. The fullness of Holy Spirit was truly felt in both our voices and our silence.

19.01.2022 1 week and 1 day ago, it was Day 1 of ACYF 2019. Plenty of us weren't sure what to expect, and were trying to stay awake despite the jet lag! Happily for us, it was easy to get carried away at our communal joy at being instruments of God and thr Holy Spirit. What sessions did you go to? Did you take down notes? How were you moved and how are you spreading that joy and the Holy Spirit's will this holiday season? #acyf19 #listentothespirit

18.01.2022 "The Church you are part of is yearning to teach you and learn from you." - Archbishop Timothy Costelloe Did you learn about mental health, the Church's obligation to the environment, fighting euthanasia or slavery, prayer social media, music and worship, discernment, vocations ...? Before we start Day 2, we thank all of our speakers who were so giving of their selves yesterday.

17.01.2022 Thousands of young Australian Catholics have been challenged to go out and rebuild Gods Church on the opening day of the 2019 Australian Catholic Youth Festival. The opening session of the Festival, which has drawn 5500 young people from across Australia, featured a Welcome to Country, high-tempo music, inspirational speakers and moments of prayer. Archbishop Timothy Costelloe SDB, the host of the Festival as the Archbishop of Perth, welcomed pilgrims and encouraged them t...o bring every part of themselves to the gathering. You are welcome here with your questions, with your hopes, with your dreams. You are welcome here with your doubts and with your fears. You are welcome here with your hesitations and youre welcome here with all your enthusiasms." http://www.perthcatholic.org.au/News__Events-News-2019-Dece CCLI Licence No 600727 Size J and 147212 Size J and One Licence No A-730567. #acyf19 #faith #church #alive #australia #perth

17.01.2022 Here's a fun #FlashbackFriday! We hope you all appreciated the little things that allowed you to enjoy, encounter, and express yourselves! In between praying and worshipping together, it is important too that we got to have fun and celebrate being youths for Christ. ACYF 2019 would be nothing if it weren't for the energy of those who planned and who attended. P.S. Have you helped out our brothers and sisters affected by bushfires? Go to catholic.org.au/bushfires to find out how you can be part of the Catholic Church in Australia's national response

17.01.2022 "Nothing is impossible with God." Some stunning photos from the Missa Terra Sacti Spiritu yesterday. Tonight's mass at Trinity College will be as unforgettable. Invite your Perth family and friends and we'll see you there at 6:30PM! #acyf19 #listentothespirit

16.01.2022 Another one -week-and-one-day-ago throwback! Energy was so high, coming off of Day 1. In the middle of it all were masses, adorations and interactive sessions.

04.01.2022 "You are welcome here with your questions, with your hopes, with your dreams. You are welcome here with your doubts and with your fears. You are welcome here with hesitations and you're welcome here with all your enthusiasms. God is real. Christ is alive." - Archbishop Timothy Costelloe Too many booths and sessions, too little time! Where did the Holy Spirit and your own longing for encounter take you this afternoon?... #acyf19 #listentothespirit

04.01.2022 And just like that, it's done! There'll be more pictures and videos to come. But more importantly, we pray the Holy Spirit never stops coming into your lives in inspiring and surprising ways. May the love we have for God and our fellows in the Church in Australia make us open to always listen to what the spirit is saying. Amen! #acyf19 #listentothespirit

03.01.2022 It's #WaybackWednesday, and the theme is smiles! Even in the midst of singing, discussion, and plenty of prayer, a lot of the pilgrims were great at catching the eyes of our photographers from the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference, Iceberg Media and The Record. Always remember that when the Holy Spirit courses through you, it brings joy and light! To help our brothers and sisters who are in need because of the bushfires, we invite you all to read the points-of-action or download the prayer resources at catholic.org.au/bushfires

02.01.2022 As much as fun and learning, ACYF was built on prayer and reflection. Being able to pray with each other, with equal sincerity and love, helped remind us all how truly moving every single sign of the cross can be and how life-changing we can turn every amen. . . This Australia Day, let us use the power of prayer and our generosity for our brothers and sisters affected by bushfires. All Churches in Australia will hold a special collection which will go directly to the Vinnies relief fund.
