"The WYD design coordinator, came to me and asked me to draw the Jesus who was on the altarpiece for the closing Mass. She said that this was my way of thanking God for the talent he had given me and that this was their way of thanking me for volunteering." Éva Pál, Hungary.

"I had the dream and a lot of faith of participating in one WYD and until this day I am still amazed that it did happened. WYD 2019 was my first time outside of Honduras, my favorite thing was discovering the universal aspect of the Catholic Church." Rosario Carrillo, Honduras
