Carna Cristo is an important religious event held annually in Juruti, a municipality in the western part of Pará, Brazil, which lacks traditional street carnival festivities. This year marks the 16th edition of Carna Cristo, scheduled for Saturday, April 14, 2026, with the theme 'Youth, God dwells in you.' The celebration begins with a Holy Mass at the Igreja Matriz Nossa Senhora da Saúde, inviting not just the youth but the entire Catholic community to partake in this joyful moment of worship.

After the Mass, youth participants will process through the streets of Juruti towards the São Sebastião headquarters, where they will enjoy a continued celebration filled with praise, prayer, and reflection led by Frater Adriano SCJ. The event aims to foster a sense of community and encourage young people to deepen their faith while enjoying a festive atmosphere that reflects spiritual joy rather than traditional carnival revelry.

Carna Cristo not only highlights the importance of religious gathering for the youth but also serves as a unifying event for the entire Catholic community in Juruti during the carnival season, showcasing how local traditions can create a unique cultural celebration rooted in faith and fellowship.
