Latin Patriarchal Vicariate of Jordan

General Secretariat of Christian Youth

Our History

The General Secretariat of Christian Youth was established in 1987 on the Feast of Christ the King. On this day, the youth celebrate their patron saint and dedicate themselves to Christ the King, who loved us and sacrificed Himself for us.

It is tradition during this feast for the Bishop to appoint a group of young people to serve their brothers and sisters as members of the General Secretariat. This body develops an annual plan, which is then executed by various committees specialized according to age groups.

Our Vision

To build and develop a creative, distinguished, and effective generation that leaves an influential mark on the Church, society, and the homeland.

Our Mission

Inspired by the spirit of the Gospel, we serve Jordanian Christian youth and develop their skills through periodic meetings, camps, workshops, volunteer projects, and other activities aimed at their spiritual and cultural growth while strengthening their humanitarian and social roles.
