Summary/Abstract: Nowadays, a great challenge for the Church is the concern about the youth pastoral care. This urgent matter was also noticed by Pope Francis in the Apostolic Exhortation Christus vivit. According to this document, it is possible to create a particular pastoral strategy to work with young people. In accordance with the Pope’s opinion, this concern about young people should be expressed in deep, personal relationships that are built on a true authority. A very significant factor in the process of Christian formation is the role of an appropriate leader and community, which creates an environment of faith that leads to a meeting with God. Man is a relational being. Therefore, thanks to relationship with other people, one can lead others to meet the Lord. Caring for the youth is not reserved only for individuals, but also for all environments that have an impact on young people. It is only the commitment of everyone that will help to construct pastoral and effective youth ministry.
