The Papal visit in 2010 touched and transformed many lives at all levels of society. Being part of the 3000 strong young people who attended the Hyde Park event was nothing less than a
transfiguration moment, especially when Hyde Park fell silent as we were led into adoration of the Blessed Sacrament with the Pope. Following in the footsteps of this memorable and historic time there is a real need to provide young people with the opportunity to celebrate their identity and faith together. Such an event is taking place next year in the run up to the Olympics on Saturday 24 March 2012. FLAME is an event open to those aged 14 upwards and will be being held in the Wembley Arena. 60,000 young people from across the country will be there; it will be a chance to come together, Listen to others, be creative, enjoy music and friendship, and experience our Catholic faith together. It’s an event specifically for young Catholics and their friends and YOU ARE invited. The Youth Service are organising a weekend visit to London incorporating the trip to FLAME and taking some time for sightseeing afterwards.
