At his general audience, the Pope greeted participants of the Third Latin American Congress of Youth to be held in the coming days in the city of Los Teques, Venezuela. The meeting, organized by the Youth Section of the Latin American Episcopal Council, will be held on the theme "We walk with Jesus to give life to our peoples." The Pope invited everyone at this important initiative to turn their gaze to Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God. "With his grace," the Pope said, "you will discover the driving force to engage in causes that give dignity to man and make peoples great." He told the young people that these days of prayer and study will serve to help them meet personally the Lord and listen to his Word. "You will not be cheated, because all his intentions are of love and salvation," the Pope said. "The Pope is by your side and affirms his confidence, as well as asking God to help you so, as true disciples of Jesus Christ, you live the Gospel values, transmitting them with courage to those around you and getting your inspiration from them to build a more justice and reconciliation." The Pope said it is worth engaging in this beautiful mission.
