Notre Dame High School Tour Choir in Sydney for World Youth Day 2008!

After a flight cancellation at San Francisco International Airport on Sunday, July 13, the Notre Dame High School Tour Choir has landed safely in Sydney, Australia to participate in World Youth Day 2008. World Youth Day is the largest youth event in the world and will be held this year on Tuesday, July 15 through Sunday, July 20, 2008.

First organized by Pope John Paul II, World Youth Day brings together young people from around the globe to celebrate and learn about their faith. The Sydney gathering is the largest event ever hosted in Australia, attracting over 400,000 Australians and 125,000 international visitors. This year's theme as proclaimed by Pope Benedict XVI is: "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you will be my witnesses" based on Acts 1:8.

The Eternal World Television Network will broadcast both live and repeat coverage of events throughout the week (all times are Pacific Daylight Time):

• Opening Mass: Tuesday, July 15 at 6 p.m. and 9 p.m.
• Papal Arrival by Boat: Wednesday, July 16 at 9:30 p.m. and Thursday, July 17 at 7a.m., 1:00 p.m., and 6:30 p.m.
• Live Stations of the Cross: Thursday, July 17 at 9:30 p.m. and Friday, July 18 at 11:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.
• Evening Vigil with Pope Benedict: Saturday, July 19 at 1:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.
• Closing Mass: Saturday, July 19 at 4:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. and Sunday, July 20 at 9 a.m.

Notre Dame High School Tour Choir and the Junipero Serra High School Men's Chorus will participate in the Evening Vigil which will be celebrated at Southern Cross Precinct, Randwick Racecourse, and Centennial Park in Sydney, Australia. The Vigil will include music, testimonies, a homily from Pope Benedict, prayer, and a time of Eucharistic Adoration. The Vigil continues well into the night with quiet, prayerful reflection and adoration. Pilgrims will then sleep under the stars at Randwick Racecourse in preparation for the Closing Mass on Sunday July 20.

NDB junior Andrea Sullivan's father Bob has graciously allowed us access to their family blog which includes the full itinerary, daily updates, and photos. Enjoy!
