To know, to deepen, to build<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Timi\u015foara (Romania) is with two other cities the 2023 ‘European Capital of Culture’.\u00a0 Roman Catholic Bishop P\u00e1l J\u00f3zsef Csaba of Timi\u015foara invited the annual meeting of the Friends of Together for Europe<\/em> (TfE<\/em>) to his city (16-18\/11\/2023).<\/p>\n

Some friends of TfE<\/em> express here why they will attend the meeting.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cezara Delia Perian<\/strong>, from the Orthodox youth group in Timisoara:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

I am in favour of a Christian Europe with Christian principles. I would like to hear about the experiences in the context of TfE<\/em>. And as a citizen of Timisoara, I want to present my city, which, for centuries has been an example of peaceful coexistence between different minorities, Churches, Movements and ecclesial cultures. Therefore, I kindly invite you to the Friends of TfE<\/em> 2023 meeting in Timisoara, with the promise of an extraordinary meeting and a unique experience.<\/p>\n

So\u0148a Jan\u010d\u00edkov\u00e1, TfE<\/em> Steering Committee, European Network of Communities ENC, Slovak Republic:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Since unity is written very deep in my heart, I decided to join TfE<\/em>. I would like to meet new people and get to know what is in their hearts. In the ENC we have communities from Romania and I love this country. It is very important that this meeting takes place in the East of Europe and we are looking forward to seeing how great the potential of this country is, so that the rest of Europe will be based more on Christian values.<\/p>\n

Philipp Barthel, TfE<\/em> Steering Committee, YMCA Munich, Germany:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Why do I go to the TfE<\/em> meeting in Timisoara? Because I want to personally experience the faith of Christians of different Churches, nationalities and ages.<\/p>\n

Reydibel Mesa, Focolare Movement, Hungary:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

I think this meeting will be a moment of brotherhood and peace in Europe. It will be days where we can experience the strength of the unity of peoples united in God: young people, adults, from different countries and different Christian Churches, but all Together.<\/p>\n

G\u00e9rard Testard, Ef<\/em>esia, France:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

We are walking on the road opened up by the founders of Europe and all those, who, throughout history, did not accept conflict as a fatality, but committed themselves to breaking down barriers.<\/p>\n

Mgr P\u00e1l J\u00f3zsef Csaba, Bishop in Timisoara:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

By your presence you show Romania the beauty of the Christian faith.<\/p>\n

Cinzia Panero, Focolare Movement, Serbia:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

For me TfE<\/em> is a network of life, of shared experiences, of intentions
\ndreamed and achieved with others in a common concrete work. We experienced it last March in Belgrade: the Institute for the Study of Culture and of Christianity and the Focolare Movement in Serbia, we realised the Exhibition-art competition “The world in an image, image of the world” between Serbian artists of various religious faiths and nationalities, with the support of the Ministry for Cooperation between religious communities. The meeting in Timisoara will be an opportunity to strengthen our friendship, open up to new experiences, build relationships in a real network, tangible, fraternal network.<\/p>\n
