Brief History of CYON

Image
CYON Nigeria was founded in 1985 to create a youth organization for young Catholics in Nigeria. [1]  CYO emerged in the context of a concern of the  Catholic Bishops' Conference of Nigeria  (CBCN) that the young Catholics and local Catholic youth organizations in Nigeria should celebrate the  International Youth Year  (IYY) declared by the United Nations in 1985. Several meetings of chaplains responsible for youth affairs and youths leaders from the various dioceses of Nigeria took place to plan a national Catholic youth rally. From this type of rallies finally CYO Nigeria emerged as a nationwide umbrella for Catholic youth work in Nigeria. [4]  In 2010, at the General Assembly in Munich, CYO Nigeria was adopted as a full member to the international umbrella of Catholic youth organizations " Fimcap ".

Happy feast of st. charles LWANGA TO ALL AFRICAN YOUTHS Saint Charles Lwanga and his companions (- 1885/7) Many Christians, Catholic and Protestant, were killed by the Ugandan king Mwanga. Some of them were servants in the king’s palace or even his personal attendants. Charles Lwanga and his twenty-one companions (the youngest, Kitizo, was only 13) were executed for being Christians, for rebuking the king for his debauchery and for murdering an Anglican missionary, for “praying from a book,” and for refusing to allow themselves to be ritually sodomised by the king. They died between 1885 and 1887. Most of them were burned alive in a group after being tortured.   Within a year of their deaths, the number of catechumens in the country quadrupled. St Charles Lwanga is the patron of Catholic Action and of black African youth, and the Ugandan martyrs’ feast day is a public holiday in Uganda. Other saints: Saint Kevin (- 618) He founded a monastery at Glendalough in County Wicklow, Ire
