Goa, February 7, 2025: The World Dance Crew Workshop was held in Goa on January 28 and 30, bringing together over 60 Catholic youth for a dynamic and faith-filled dance experience. Organized by the Diocesan Youth Centre, Goa, in collaboration with the internationally renowned World Youth Dance Crew, the initiative aimed to showcase the use of dance as a medium for evangelization. The first workshop was held at the Diocesan Youth Centre in Margao on January 28, while the second workshop was held at the Church Hall of St. Jerome’s Parish in Mapusa on January 30.
