Pope Francis' Scholas Occurrentes Movement Brings Youth Together | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Pope Francis recently met with young people who are participating in a Vatican-backed initiative on education. The Holy Father started the Scholas Occurrentes movement when he was an archbishop in Argentina. Now, the foundation reaches more than 1 million people, primarily children and young adults around the world. Its mission is to respond to the call to create the culture of encounter by bringing young people together. International Coordinator of Educational Experiences with Youth at Scholas Occurrentes, Maria Martha Barreneche, joins to tell us more about this event with the pope present and what well-known musician took part. Barreneche shares more about the organization itself and the work it does around the world. She discusses some projects they are currently working on.
