\nArchbishop of Panama (Panama)
\n'The word 'thank you' will always be our greeting. Thank you for giving this small Central American isthmus the opportunity to celebrate a World Youth Day.'<\/em><\/p>\n
\n 'I was very happy in Panama, I was very happy. One breathed normality, tenderness. It's a very beautiful thing. Thank you to all of you who have made this possible, and get ready for the second one that, surely... a successor of mine will call 150 years from now. There's no problem! Thank you. Pray for me.'<\/em><\/p>\n
\nExecutive Secretary, WYD Panama 2019
\n 'It was a beautiful moment for all of us who participated. We came with great enthusiasm to see him, to thank him for the beautiful day he gave us in January.'<\/em><\/p>\n
\nDirector of Catholic Panorama
\n 'He told us again that we are a kind, happy, noble people. That big word really describes us because we are a welcoming people\u201d. 'I brought the special magazine we made for the day. We made two very good magazines.' <\/em><\/p>\n
\nChief communications officer, Archdiocese of Panama
\n'The pope has indicated and reiterated he loved being in Panama. He felt our tenderness, and as woman, I really appreciate it.' 'We came out confident in the Lord that we have a task to do after World Youth Day. We have to take advantage of it, so more young people recognize their life project: be it a priest, a nun, a lay person or a joyful spouse in marriage. We want to help them make a good decision.'<\/em><\/p>\n
