The Congress entitled "Youth, Faith and Vocational Discernment", the theme of the last Synod of Bishops on Youth, took place from June 17 to 20 to promote a message of hope offered to those who animate, accompany, and joyfully choose to engage in the following of the Lord Jesus.

Father Alexandre Awi Mello, I.Sch., Secretary of the Dicastery, participated in the event by sending a video message about Pope Francis' latest apostolic exhortation, "Christus vivit", which is reproduced below.
