Together for Europe is a path of communion, a free convergence of Christian Communities and Movements of different Churches, spread all over the continent. Maintaining their autonomy, they network for shared purposes, bringing the contribution of their own charisma, while respecting diversity. Read more>

This year, too, we want to consciously celebrate Europe Day. A fundamental expression of this is prayer, with which we entrust to God the continent’s immense challenges, but also the hopes and concrete commitment to reconciliation and mutual acceptance between our peoples.
A visit among friends. This was the wish of three members of the International Steering Committee of Together for Europe (TfE) when they undertook the trip at the beginning of March. Sister Nicole Grochowina (Christusbruderschaft Selbitz), Father Raffael Rieger (Schönstatt Movement) and Matthias Bühlmann (Vineyard) spent three days in France with the Brothers of Taizé.
In various places, initiatives have been started for years now where people from different cultures and nations meet regularly online to pray for an end to wars and for a stable peace in Europe and in the world. These are moments of profoundness, togetherness and sharing. We present here the experiences of Ukraine, Slovenia and Germany. Finally, we conclude with a powerful reflection by Pope Francis on prayer.
‘Seek the good of the city’ (Jer 29:7) is the title of the initiative of Together for Europe in Germany, which will take place in Munich from 27 to 29 June 2025. This is the purpose of the event from the perspective of the organisers.
On 28 November 2024 Christian Krause, former President of the Lutheran World Federation and a long-standing friend of Together for Europe, reached the finish line of his life. His message of Christian unity as a response to the needs of our time remains alive among us.

Our Vision of Europe
A united and multifaceted Europe with strong social cohesion in cultural diversity. Our diversity should no longer be a reason for fear or separation. We live for a Europe that does not suppress them, but rather rediscovers them as riches and develops and harmonises them.
A Europe animated by fraternity. To spread this Europe we offer the fruits of our Gospel-based love: sharing of goods and resources; equality and freedom for all; openness to those with other cultures and religious traditions. This lifestyle can be an inspiration for bolder choices in all fields.
A Europe that becomes itself a ‘message of peace’, a bridge between peoples. We build it by living as reconciled people in our daily lives and committing ourselves to promoting a culture of encounter.
A democratic, participatory Europe. The awareness that each of us is a unique and unrepeatable subject, with an irrepressible vocation for relations, makes each one a resource for building new forms of responsible democratic participation, for constructive relations between citizens and institutions.
A Europe aware of its responsibilities and open to the world.

Some History
A Europe – from the Atlantic to the Urals – that puts the person at the centre, endowed with a unique dignity, to be recognised and respected by states, civil and religious communities and individuals.
