JesusYouth International Newsletter Description:

Jesus Youth is an international Catholic youth movement with a charismatic spirituality. It had its beginnings in Kerala (India), but is now active in nearly 25 different countries around the world.

Jesus Youth is an initiative of young people themselves, who, filled with the Holy Spirit try to reach out to other young people. The strength of the movement is its special focus on a life centered on the Lord Jesus Christ: beginning with an experience of God nourished by prayer, the Word of God, the sacraments and fellowship, and sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with others.

Though not an actual community, Jesus Youth is a network of small but vibrant groups of young people. In their own life situations, they strive to give time to the Lord, responding to the challenges of today’s world in the power of the Holy Spirit.

In this issue

I have often wondered why the Risen Lord chose to appear to a woman first. In the Gospel of John, Mary is the one who finds Jesus' at the empty tomb. Is it because it was she who went to the tomb? Is it because she discovered that the tomb was empty? Or is it because she as Magdalene had a new identity in Christ? The identity that was given to her by the Lord to recognise and regard herself as an independent personality rather than as someone else’s daughter, wife, mother, friend or prostitute. Christ had in mind the unique role women would play in the building of His Kingdom by fulfilling the divine commission (Mathew 28:18-20) through his promise.
