YMCA Europe Festival 2008
3-9 August 2008, Prague, Czech Republic
Tent Church
REAL LIFE - the festival will be loud, eventful and full of vivid life - but life has many aspects.
In the midst of the festival there is a tent - the tent of God, the tent church
. Here you'll find quietness, here you can meet God, and here you find
people who want to help you to do that. Or you can just come here and
be yourself, taking time for yourself.
We will celebrate a great Festival. We will celebrate Jesus in our centre, who also is the centre of the YMCA. He has called us to love each other and to pass on the Gospel as to bring our neighbor in contact with God. The Tent Church will be a place of quietness, reflection and encounter with our God. Here you can breathe deeply and receive new strength.
There will be short worships at 10.15 / 13.00 / 15.00 / 17.00 / 19.00 with music and spiritual inputs. They will be implemented by groups coming from various countries with their different spiritual backgrounds and styles.
In the evening at 22.00 there will be Late Night Worhips, which will also be designed by international teams.
Besides the worships you'll find a Bible Parcours in and around the Tent Church, giving the opportunity for a talk, a prayer or silence. In the midst of all the actions of the Festival, the Tent Church will be an important point of rest.
The big Tent Church will be constructed by outdoortech , a team of scouts from Switzerland, and it will offer space for over 800 people.
