Two days of fellowship dedicated to things of ultimate importance – a possibility to see how the church lives and what she breathes, to meet with people from various different confessions, of different ages, social groups and educational backgrounds. A chance to share your inspiration with those who are searching for the fullness of Christian life and life in the Church.
WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?
Because Russian society not only has the right, but also the obligation, to know that aside from the primitive natural “dog-eat-dog” survival instinct, there exist other laws of life, and that even in our reasonably difficult circumstances it is possible to live a worthy, Christian life.
WHAT DOES “LIVING TOGETHER” MEAN?
To live together is to see the person within the person. To remove one’s gaze from the past and to bring it into the present and focus it on those people who – no matter what – continue to live and work in Russia and, moreover, gather other people around themselves in doing so. To bring people together, to learn to live and create together, to change our lives so that they more conform to reason and even so that they are inspiring.
WHO WILL VISIT THIS FESTIVAL?
Anyone who wishes. The last Transfiguration Meetings festival brought together 2000 participants from Russia, Italy, France, Switzerland, Romania and other countries. This year we expect even a larger crowd!
