E s’ tu non ti conforti, tu cadrai In disperanza […] – Cino da Pistoia

Starting from our understanding of the word hope, going through both secular, Christian, and biblical history, we want to try to understand how necessary it is to have confidence. Agape teaches us to trust in human beings hoping that this will improve the world; would it even work without hope? Can trust exist without hope?

We want to try to reflect on the importance of trust in faith: do we need to strengthen hope or trust to, perhaps, regain that faith in God that we can no longer feel?

The camp is aimed at those who are interested in theology, those who are in research, and those who want to share their faith journey: it is a camp whose basis is the deep sense of service and community living. Through diverse experiences and knowledge sharing, Agape creates the foundation for personal and faith growth based on mutual respect and care.

Reflection will be conducted in multiple voices to build a plurality of thought; participants will be involved with group reflections, thematic workshops, theological animations and plenary discussions. Morning meditations and spiritual aperitifs will be conducted within the camp. There will be the usual outing to enjoy the landscape and nature.
We look forward to seeing you with confidence and hope!

Vi aspettiamo con fiducia e speranza!
