Pueri Cantores

Singing for peace, worshipping God and experiencing community in a worldwide movement

Founded in 1950 by a French Abbé named Fernand Maillet the international federation of children’s and youth choirs grew up to more than 1000 members coming from 25 countries with regular federations and spread choirs and contact persons in 17 more countries. Every year girls and boys meet in different cities all over the world to sing for peace, praise the Lord and having fun to make music together. They generate a vivid community with a powerful cultural and spiritual impulse.
