WYD Logo World Youth Day 2002 Menu FAQ Days in the Dioceses WYD Cross Accommodation Youth Festival Photo Gallery Message Board Links Contacts Text size 1.2.3.4 Print The WYD 2002 logo consists of four elements that symbolize the location, participants and spirit of this international conference of young Catholics and visit of the Pope to Canada from July 18-28, 2002. The cross symbolizes the presence of Jesus Christ. He is the person the participants are coming to meet, the underlying reason for this trip that is a spiritual pilgrimage rather than a tourism trip. Pilgrims will also experience the presence of Jesus Christ in the Church and in the others who attend WYD. The shape of the cross is similar to the crozier or pastoral staff used by Pope John Paul II, who plans to attend WYD 2002. The yellow circle represents the youth who will attend WYD at the invitation of John Paul II. WYD 2002 is an event that includes all of Canada. Therefore, two symbols express this reality. First, the blue section at the top represents the oceans and waters of Canada. The three open sides represent the oceans bordering Canada - the Pacific on the West, Arctic in the north and Atlantic on the east. On these coasts, missionaries planted the cross as a sign of the faith they brought. From July 18-22, 2002, foreign visitors will be welcomed into the homes of Catholic families in cities bordering the Pacific and Atlantic oceans - and many points in between. A few may even have the opportunity to visit the Arctic. Following these first four days, WYD participants will come to Toronto for the large-scale events from July 23-28, 2002. Torontožs location on Lake Ontario will further underline the presence of bodies of water in Canada. The fourth element of the logo is the maple leaf, the national symbol of Canada. It surrounds the symbol of the participants, representing the kindness and hospitality foreign guests will receive. At WYD 2002, pilgrims will also have the chance to: meet people from 150 countries who share the same faith but live it in different cultures and circumstances enjoy themselves through an extensive entertainment program deepen their understanding of their faith through religious instruction sessions and the chance to attend Mass and to go to confession experience the kindness of their Canadian hosts, in the homes of the Catholic families who will receive them as well as from Canadians of all religions Terms and Conditions for the Use of the WYD 2002 Logo The logo is a registered trademark of WYD 2002, which owns the exclusive rights to use and license the logo.
