SUMMARY:International Congress on Family networks: “Antidote to loneliness”
DESCRIPTION:The Federation of Catholic Family Associations in Europe (FAFCE) and the Catholic University Saint Anthony of Murcia (UCAM) are happy to invite you to the International Congress on Family networks: “Antidote to loneliness” in Murcia (2nd of May 2023)\n\n\nThis year FAFCE Spring Board Meeting will take place in Murcia\, Spain\, between the 2nd and 4th of May 2023\, hosted by the Catholic University of Murcia (UCAM). FAFCE Board gathers twice a year for a 3-days meeting\, and is a key moment of dialogue between Catholic Family Associations in Europe\, during which the main guidelines of their action at the European level are decided. \nOn this occasion\, FAFCE would like to invite you to participate in the International Congress on Family networks: “Antidote to loneliness” in Murcia\, on the 2nd of May\, organised together with the Catholic University of Murcia (UCAM). \nThanks to the shared values and synergy of purpose between FAFCE and UCAM\, this international congress will aim to underline the importance of family associations and networks for the future of Europe and the Universal Church\, following the words of Pope Francis addressed to the Board of FAFCE (Clementine Hall\, Vatican City\, 10 June 2022): “I also renew the encouragement I gave to you five years ago (1 June 2017) and I encourage you to continue your work of encouraging the creation and consolidation of family networks. This is a valuable service\, because there is a need for places\, gatherings and communities where couples and families feel welcomed\, accompanied\, and never alone. There is an urgent need for the local Churches\, both in Europe and beyond\, to encourage the work of the laity and families who accompany families”. \nThe congress will take place in the framework of the Catholic University Saint Anthony of Murcia (UCAM)\, an admirable example of how\, thanks to the inspiration of a layman\, José Luiz Mendoza Pérez\, a Catholic university has been able and continues to contribute to the evangelizing mission of the Church: “Bringing the Good News into all the strata of humanity\, and through its influence transforming humanity from within and making it new” (Evangelii nuntiandi\, nn. 18 ff.: AAS 68 (1976)\, pp. 17-18). \n\nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER\n\nPROGRAMME\n\n\n12.00 – 12.30 Registration  \n12.30 – 13.30 Holy Mass \nPlace: Templo \n13.30 – 15.00 Lunch \n\n\n15.00 – 16.00 Opening Ceremony \n\nMrs María Dolores García Mascarell\, President of the San Antonio University Foundation and the San Antonio Catholic University of Murcia (UCAM)\nE.
