A very big YCW story for the centenary. 20+ French YCW lay leaders, seminarians & priests (plus 1 YCS) to be beatified after Pope Leo recognised their martyrdom by the Nazis. And there are many more in Belgium, e.g. Fernand Tonnet and Paul Garcet. centreinternationalcardijn.org/french-jocis...

This is a project that I've long wanted to complete: a new online edition of Cardijn's classic 1930 "Manuel de la JOC" or "YCW Manual." Here it is, just in time for the centenary of the movement. A document to read, meditate and study! Chrome browser will translate it. manuel1930.josephcardijn.com

Great to hear that Carlo Acutis is being canonised. But I sometimes wonder whether we do enough to recognise the saints from our own movementss? Like Pierre Brébion of the French JEC (YCS)?

Youth "ministry" or "pastoral practice/praxis"? What's the difference and why has "ministry" taken over in the Anglosphere? Differently put, why has the Church largely abandoned Cardijn, the YCW, the YCS...? synodality.cardijnresearch.org/youth-minist...
