Win an all expense paid trip to Rio de Janeiro!
St. Mark’s Parish (Prescott) is sponsoring an essay writing competition with the grand prize being an all expense paid pilgrimage to Rio de Janeiro to participate in World Youth Day (WYD) 2013 – July 20 – July 31. Value of prize is $4,200.00.

This competition is open to any full-time high school or post secondary student who will be at least 18 years of age by departure date and are interested in taking a faith filled pilgrimage to Rio where they will join in solidarity with Pope Benedict XVI and youth from all around the world in offering public worship to God.

The essay is to be titled “Why I want to participate in WYD 2013”. Deadline for submissions is Midnight Easter 2012.

One winner is guaranteed, but hopefully the financial support from individuals in our communities will be such that multiple winners are possible. Donations in support of this competition will be accepted up until Easter 2013.

To help, please make your  financial gift payable to St. Mark’s Youth and mail it to the administrator of this competition and pilgrimage leader Mr. Tony Jozefowicz, P.O.
