Fox News
World Youth Day was created by St. John Paul II to invigorate young people to join the Catholic faith. Pope Francis will be traveling to Lisbon, Portugal, to celebrate.
Francis is staying in Lisbon for the length of the visit but will make a day trip to Fatima on Aug. 5. Francis previously traveled there in 2017 to mark the 100th anniversary of one of the most unique events of the 20th-century Catholic Church: the visions of the Virgin Mary reported by three shepherd children and the "secrets" she told them.
Francis’ visit this time around comes as war is raging in Ukraine, providing a comparison to when the original visions were reported at a time when Europe was in the throes of World War I.
