Right before we met that Saturday (09.07.2008), the rain poured. It reminded me of the saying, "When it rains, it pours." Just a day before that, I have spoken to Fr. Silvio Vallecoccia , Jugendseelsorge for Foreign Mission in the Archdiocese of Cologne, and he has arranged our participation in Altenberg. He has told me that our entrance fee has already been taken cared of. The blessing had indeed poured!
Most of the participants showed up early at the Parkplatz Regal'sche Wiese, Bad Godesberg with all the excitement and the memories of WYD Cologne 05. On the way to Altenberg, we started the journey with a prayer and later on mingled with one another, sang songs while one is playing the guitar, shared experiences from the previous WYD. We were all looking forward to that weekend.
