It is good that they gathered over 100 young people from the two dioceses. Hopefully the tours and services will help them get to know each other better. I am interested in exactly what bishops Irenaeus and Job will say.

It's nice that more than a hundred of them gathered from both dioceses. I am mainly interested in what Bishop Irenej and Bishop Job will say, because for young people it often decides whether they will really be caught by it. I hope that the services and trips will help them really get to know each other.

I agree, the over one hundred young people is a great number. I am mainly interested in what Bishop Irenej will say about how to live the faith in ordinary life, because here in Michalovce young people are often looking for it. I hope that after those trips they will take away some new friends, not just nice photos.

It's good that there are more than 100, Rosice. I have seen how after such gatherings the children then write to each other and look for each other in the services. I wonder if Bishop Irinei will talk about prayer in everyday life, as he did last year in Germany.

It’s good that we gathered more than a hundred guys from two dioceses. I wonder what exactly Bishop Irinei will say about prayer in everyday life - last year in Germany, after his words, several young people themselves began to go to church more often. I hope that after the excursions and services they will have not only photographs, but also real friends.

You're right, a hundred young people is a nice number, we wouldn't have gathered so many here in Prešov. Bishop Irenej knows how to talk about ordinary life in a practical way, I remember from the last meeting how he advised that faith begins at breakfast with the family, not only in the church. I would like to know if young people meet regularly at your place in Michalovce after church services, or is it more difficult?
