What do you mean by days in parishes?

Days in parishes is a 4-5 days event(05-09 December 2019) that precedes the week of MWYD. Pilgrims are hosted by parish communities with whom they eat meals, celebrate Masses, pray, and experience the culture of local parishioners. Most often, the closest bonds of MWYD are formed during the days in parishes experience. Many pilgrims continue to communicate with their host families long after the Days in parishes farewell Mass.
