Aportes del Papa Francisco para propiciar la renovación de la pastoral juvenil

Abstract

Pope Francis began his pontificate on March 13, 2013. In his ordinary universal magisterium, he has produced pastoral documents such as: encyclicals, post-synodal exhortations and other less solemn ones such as the messages for the world youth days that call to undertake the path of pastoral conversion and renewal of youth ministry. The Church has the great challenge of operationalizing the lines, contributions and substantial guidelines that promote the renewal of youth ministry and avoid remaining only in written or unknown documents. That is why this research aims to determine what are the contributions of the pastoral documents of Pope Francis (2013-2020), generating a new document for pastoral practice and pedagogical reflection. This work is of a qualitative type, with a hermeneutical approach, of documentary research methodology, where through instruments such as bibliographic records, information will be collected, to be later analyzed, interpreted and written in a report.
