From the powerful testimonies and inspiring speakers to the incredible energy of the crowd, uplifting musical acts, and the joy of connecting with thousands of other young Catholics across the country—it was a day of deep faith, fun, and fellowship. They were also joined by Mary Maziva, one of the event organisers and an MC for the day, who gave us a glimpse behind the scenes—offering reflections on how the event came together and what it meant for the team to witness the Spirit moving among so many young people.
