Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Orphan
Hakuna is a Catholic youth movement founded in 2012 in Spain, as part of the preparations for World Youth Day 2013 in Rio de Janeiro. Legally it is a private association of lay faithful, and has a musical group called Hakuna Group Music. At present the musical group features more than forty musicians and singers from within the association.
Hakuna began in 2012 as part of the preparations for World Youth Day 2013, to be held in Rio de Janeiro. Inspired by the phrase of Pope Francis: "Make a mess, go out to the streets to live the gospel", afterwards, the priest José Pedro Manglano, began to meet with a group of young people in the parish of San José María de Aravaca, to pray holy hours, compose songs, give talks by a speaker, and other meetings.[1]
In 2020, the directors of Opus Dei allowed their member José Pedro Manglano to lead and guide Hakuna, who until then was incardinated in the Prelature of Opus Dei.[2][3]
In September 2022, Hakuna's musical group gathered 8,000 people at the Palacio Vistalegre, Madrid, to present their album Qaos.[4] The concert went viral on social networks (such as TikTok and Instagram), primarily with the song Huracán, which has more than two million views.[5]
Since its founding, Hakuna has been growing exponentially, currently present in almost all the provincial capitals of Spain, and some cities in Europe and North and South America.
Organization
Hakuna is a private organization of lay faithful, of a foundational nature, with its own legal personality and full capacity to act, which is non-profit and has permanently affected its assets to the realization of purposes of general interest, according to its statutes. These have been approved since 2017 by the Cardinal and Archbishop of Madrid, Carlos Osoro.[6]
Hakuna members refer to themselves as "pringados", who are generally young people who are committed to leading a lifestyle according to Hakuna customs.[7]
Activities
These activities are organized within Hakuna:
- Compartiriados (Shared Activities): Shared social actions or volunteer actions.[8]
- Revolcaderos ("Wallowing"): Groups of approximately 10 people who meet every two weeks for dinner or drinks while studying a text related to Christianity.[9]
- Holy Hours: organized in churches. These consist of a weekly talk by the priest or a guest speaker, and then an hour of Adoration before the Blessed Sacrament.[10]
- God Stops: retreats that take place on a weekend in outdoor silence. Some are for university students and young professionals; others are for married couples.
- Getaways: trips taken around the world to enjoy life and carry out social and faith missions.
