The World Youth Day festival began on Tuesday with an opening Mass led by Cardinal Stanisław Dziwisz, a longtime aid to John Paul II.
As Agnieszka Łaszczuk reports, some of the pilgrims have spoken to Polish Radio and the PAP news agency, sharing their impressions and expectations.
A young Filipino said he expected the event “to be a life-changing experience.”
