WYD 2023

Time is running out to get your World Youth Day raffle tickets – the drawing will take place this Sunday, October 23rd after the Sunday 5pm Youth Mass! (Online ticket sales will end at 3pm on Sunday – tickets will still be available in-person at Mass!)

As you can imagine, the expense of participating in a week-long pilgrimage to Lisbon is significant – we need to ensure that cost will not prevent any of our young people from experiencing this event. Participating in this raffle is a great way to show your support for our young high-school-age pilgrims!

To purchase tickets…

Please support our young pilgrims by participating in our World Youth Day Closed End Raffle – all proceeds will be used to help defray travel and other expenses associated with attending this week-long event. Only 500 tickets will be sold so be sure to get yours early!  Tickets are $100 each and you could win one of these prizes:

1st Prize: $5,000 2nd Prize: $2,000 3rd Prize: $1,000

Our young pilgrims and their chaperones will be on hand at Masses to sell tickets – look for the purple shirts! Tickets can be purchased in-person by cash or check, by scanning the QR with your smartphone. You can also purchase tickets online right now by clicking…

We are excited to announce that the St. John-St. Paul Collaborative will be sending a group of teens to World Youth Day Lisbon 2023!

The week-long event, taking place August 1-6, 2023, culminates in a special Mass with the Holy Father. Our young pilgrims will be departing in less than a year!

They will begin fundraising for the trip this September with a Closed End Raffle. Tickets will be available from our pilgrims after Masses as well as online – only 500 tickets will be sold so be sure to get yours early! Tickets are $100 each and you could win…
