Whatever your background, nationality or belief, the Mariapolis provides an opportunity to build a small, temporary society based on mutual respect and experience how love creates connections.
The programme will include moments of reflection, workshops, outings and inspiration for all ages.
The Mariapolis is organised by Focolare – an international movement, inspired by the Gospel, working for unity across all spheres of life. For 80 years it has drawn together people of all ages, all Christian traditions and from many of the world’s religions, alongside people with no formal faith, who share the aim of building a more united world.
Focolare Trust is a registered charity
