Visits to Patriarch Bartholomew I and Pope Francis. Constantinople and Rome, 14th and 19th September 2024. A delegation of various Movements participating in the initiative ‘Easter Together 2025’ was received by Patriarch Bartholomew and then by Pope Francis. What unites them is the desire to bear witness to the same faith in the Risen Christ, on the shared date of Easter 2025, and to invite Christians to overcome their divisions around this date.

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.

More about our journey TOGETHER 

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.
