"Open up" was the motto last weekend at the 79th youth basketball pilgrimage of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising.

"Just as God sent Abraham on his way, we also have the mandate to be a blessing for the world," said Auxiliary Bishop Haßlberger at the youth basketball club last weekend.

It was celebrated in the Freising Cathedral and broadcast outside.

With a view to the preservation of creation, which is a central theme for young people at this time, he said, "we all have the task of ensuring that the world is a house of life for all creatures".

Ask yourself, he urged the young people: How do I contribute to this being the case? "Have courage and confidence, we can set out and trust that God will hold us and carry us and that we can always turn back if we are 'on the wrong track'." succeeded in celebrating youth basketball together with young people, ”says a happy diocesan youth pastor and BDKJ president cathedral vicar Richard Greul. “The decision to opt for smaller, decentralized“ Korbi dahoam ”events turned out to be the right one.

"We very much hope that our 80th anniversary of the youth basket pilgrimage can take place on November 12, 2022 under the motto" drifty "with many young people in the cathedral and on the fairground in Freising," concludes Claudia Hoffmann, public relations officer at the BDKJ Munich and Freising and the archbishop's youth welfare office .
