Christian Unity
Several religious denominations share the same Christian Faith: Jesus is their centre, Baptism is their initiation, the Christian Bible is their reference, and the Good News of Jesus is their Mission. We also share the same fraternal Charity and a common Hope, many times witnessed to the point of martyrdom. At WYD Lisbon 2023 there are several places, events and contacts where you will find signs of that unity.
