Jesus Youth New Zealand

Jesus Youth is an international Catholic youth movement with a charismatic spirituality, active in nearly 30 different countries around the world. Jesus Youth is an initiative of young people themselves, who, filled with the Holy Spirit try to reach out to other young people. The strength of the movement is its special focus on a life, centered on the Lord Jesus Christ: beginning with an experience of God, nourished by prayer, the Word of God, the sacraments and fellowship, and sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with others. In New Zealand, Jesus Youth ministry is active under the patronage of Bp. Patrick Dunn, Bishop of Auckland.
