چکیده
The experiences of youthful participants from the USA, Canada, Britain, Ireland, Asia, New Zealand and Australia were studied before, during and after they took part in the Sydney World Youth Day (WYD08).

The paper then examines those who reported changes to their faith as a consequence of attending WYD08 and explores some of the reasons why such changes took place for these youth.
