Post-synodal apostolic exhortation to young people and to all the people of God.

«Christ is alive is the title of Pope Francis' new post-synodal apostolic exhortation on young people, faith and vocational discernment.

It presents the example of some young people called by God both in the Old and New Testament to a specific mission, highlighting above all the figure of Jesus, who died young, the life and youth of Mary, his mother, and some saints from all ages, some of them very current.

Christus vivit refers to the ethical and anthropological challenges faced by young people today related to sexuality, the digital world and migration, among others.

It also refers to youth as a time of dreams and choices that can be illuminated by the Gospel and friendship with Jesus. It proposes a youth ministry capable of accompanying young people in the discernment of their vocation and encourages everyone to commitment and missionary commitment.»
