Mouvement de la jeunesse catholique de France, Catholic youth organization in Gentilly, France.
The Mouvement de la jeunesse catholique de France is an association for young Catholics aged 16 to 25, organized through regional groups of about ten members each. The organization focuses on spiritual growth, education, and community service projects.
The organization was founded in 1967 by Christian Marquant and officially registered as an association in 1970. It has since grown into an established network for Catholic youth across France.
The movement draws young Catholics together around shared values including friendship, prayer, and social engagement. These principles shape how members interact and support one another in their daily lives.
Interested participants can join local chapters through regional contacts and regular meetings, which offer ways to get involved. Summer trips abroad and weekend gatherings provide accessible opportunities to participate in the group's activities.
The organization's emblem features the Sacred Heart of Jesus on a compass rose against a black background, symbolizing Christ's light shining through darkness. Members often wear this distinctive image as a visual mark of their belonging.
