International Youth Meeting from 1st until 11th September 2023 in Hanover und Poland
HOPE IS THE SAME – CONTEXT IS DIFFERENT
Die Veranstaltung ist eine internationale Jugendbegegnung und wird daher in englischer Sprache durchgeführt. Infos in deutscher Sprache sind zu finden unter www.ejh.de/polen2023
Hope is individual. Basically we all hope for the same. For security, peace, freedom, self determination, love and acceptance. But depending on where we were born, how we live now and what experiences we have had so far, we all understand it differently.
100 young people from all over Europe are invited by the Lutheran church of Poland to participate in an international Youth Camp to exchange their ideas of hope. You can be one of them!
The meeting starts in Hanover. A small group connected to the regional church Hanover will come together and get to know each other. After that the group will travel jointly to the Youth Camp in Poland. In three different cities there you will enjoy an interesting programme which will be organised as well as realised by Polish staff members. The last part takes place in Krakow where also the General Assembly of the Lutheran World Federation will happen, which is a federation of 149 member church bodies in 99 countries.
