EFECW - Ecumenical Forum of European Christian Women

EFECW - Ecumenical Forum of European Christian Women The Ecumenical Forum of European Christian Women is an international, church-related organisation EFECW is a network of women from all Christian Traditions.

The Ecumenical Forum of European Christian Women is an international, church-related organisation that is active in 30 European countries. EFECW was founded in 1982 in Gwatt Switzerland. Its main aims are:

to strengthen the ecumenical network of women
to help women to find the common European identity
to challenge women to action

This happens through educational workshops, meetings,

publications about issues like: Ecumenical Learning, Political Learning, Management, Ethic-Ecological Training and projects of Reconciliation. All women, both on European and national level, work on a voluntary basis. Women wish to understand each other in their cultural differences and in their unique Christian faith. In some churches and regions of Europe women have tasks but only few rights, which could allow them to search for innovations on the path towards unity. Nevertheless believing Christians can exchange experiences and can be strengthened by the manifold ways of life of their sisters. Since thirty years the Ecumenical Forum of European Christian Women assembles women of all the different churches and denominations in Europe in seminars, conferences and assemblies.1978 the first ecumenical women's consultation took place in Brussels, where we realized how enriching and necessary the encounter and discussions were. There we felt to be empowered to search for a way to work together in East and West, South and North of Europe and promoted this movement. Some of the themes and of the participants in the last years may be interesting for you.

📍Day 3, Marburg
Co-President Marianna Apresyan, President of the German Forum Hanne Finke, and a devoted volunteer from Marburg, stand ready to lead the Peace Pilgrimage. 🕊️
