Summer Community 2011 |
|
Invitation August, 08 - 14 2011 The Kommunität Imshausen is a community of 9 women and men, which originated ca. 50 years ago from work with refugee children and in the spirit of resistance against the Nazi regime. The summer community will take place from the 2nd to the 15th of August this year. Arrival time respectively Monday by 5 p.m., departure Sunday after lunch. In the Kommunität each day is structured by the alternation of "ora et labora". In the mornings and afternoons a total of about 4-5 hours is set aside for practical work (painting and decorating, minor construction projects like the renewal of a balcony, gardening or cooking). Our work time is punctuated by the morning prayer, the singing of the Beautitudes before lunch und the evening prayer. Sometimes the workcamp community also meets for prayer at the end of the day. Enough time should remain for some thematic work, but also for games and free time. In this week we go on a one day trip in the region. The Kommunität Imshausen is located in the countryside. We emphasise that there are no shopping opportunities at all. You should bring an openness for the life of a Christian community. We expect a brief text regarding your motivation for taking part in the summer community (5-10 sentences). Lodging: in a simple house on the grounds of the "Kommunität", in shared rooms. For more information write or call or email. Kommunität Imshausen
