Interfaith Camping 2025 - Nostra Aetate Edition
The 2025 edition of Fraternity Circle was our inaugural camp with a special focus on Nostra Aetate - the groundbreaking Vatican II declaration on interreligious dialogue. Hosted at the Focolare Community, this residential program brought together young people and scholars from diverse religious backgrounds for two days of learning, sharing, and community building. Through seminars, workshops, and interactive sessions, participants explored themes of coexistence, faith in public life, and social responsibility. The event featured intensive Scriptural Reasoning sessions, group discussions, and reflective activities that deepened participants' understanding of their own and others' faith traditions.
