Eucharistic Youth Movement
The Eucharistic Youth Movement is an international Catholic educational movement oriented to youth, originated in 1915 in France as the "Eucharistic Crusade", following the call of the International Eucharistic Congress of Lourdes to form "a great Eucharistic league of children". It began its pedagogical renewal in 1962, calling itself the Eucharistic Youth Movement. It is the youth branch of the Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network.
This movement is made up of young people from 5 to 25 years of age and is present in more than 59 countries. It finds its roots in the Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network and is inspired by the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius.
