 Jesus Youth is a Lay Catholic movement within the Toronto Archdiocese with a charismatic spirituality originating in India and is now in over 17 other countries around the world. Our strength is a Jesus centred life - starting with God experience; growing through prayer, sacraments and fellowship; and bearing fruit in a life style of sharing the Good News of Jesus with others. Though not a community, we are a wide network of strong small fellowship groups. In our own unique life situations we strive to set apart time for the Lord, answering the challenges of today's world in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Well convinced that youth is a time of great generosity and creativity, young people at all levels are encouraged to do something good with the Lord. This has resulted in the various ministries and faith formation projects under the wide umbrella of Jesus youth. Jesus Youth Canada is a budding movement, started during the World Youth Days 2002 in Toronto, Canada. Though most of the activities are in Toronto, Jesus Youth Canada members reside all over Canada like Edmonton, Ottawa, Hamilton, London and Winnipeg. Jesus Youth Canada organizes weekly prayer meetings for Youths and Families in the Greater Toronto Area . We have started organizing Youth outreaches, facilitate Youth Camps and Retreats. There is a vibrant eFellowship where members share their faith and pray for each other. We consider ourselves a missionary movement under the service of the church. In GTA currently, most of our activities cater to the youths and families of the St. Thomas the Apostle Mission Parish , a church for the local Malayalee1 Catholic community.
