Dear friends,
hope you are well and you experience Gods favour and provision in all you are doing….greetings from traumhaus-community in germany…this email is a personal invitation for you for the EUROPEAN GATHERING during the SLOT ArtFestival in Lubiaz, Poland from 9 – 13 of july.
This Festival becomes more and more an event which clearly shows, that Christians have a lot to give and contribute to our secular society and culture which more or less obvious has said good bye to its christian roots and heritage. At SLOT every summer for about a week more than 5000 people gather for the biggest alternative youth-culture festival run by Christians…..a meeting-point of the christian and secular culture with a lot of significant consequences for both sides…all informations about the vision, style and focus of the festival you find on their website HYPERLINK "http://www.slot.art.pl" www.slot.art.pl
Everywhere all over Europe people have been starting a journey to find new ways of expression of Gods love for our western society and culture – new forms of church and community are springing up out of nothing and more and more it is important to network with each other to inspire, encourage, connect and learn from each other. The SLOT-ArtFestival is an inspiration in itself for this whole process and journey we are at right now….an ideal place to gather together to think, pray and get new impulses and find new friends who are on the same journey…
This year we are offering a ROUND-TABLE during the whole festival – a platform to gather, network, think and pray together…..main focus will be the subject of how can we live a relevant christian life-style together in community, the building of missional communities and how these can look like…we will have a room during the whole festival to meet, hang out, discuss, and pray together…we want to present our ideas, thoughts, needs, questions and create an environment for expression of our vision and desires what we would like to see develop in the near future…the JesusFreaks will be there with a coffee-tent – an ideal place to hang out and meet new friends…The Round-Table-Gathering will be embedded into the whole Festival-Programme….and we will have a chance to meet a lot of creative people from all over Europe during this time…you can stay the whole time but also only some days…..depends on your time and availability….
