Faltblatt-4seitig-EX150802_PersonenOn the 17-19 of June, diaconal employees and volunteers from diverse Social Service Agencies will gather together in Eisenach (Germany), for the VEDD General Meeting.

The meeting aims to stimulate debate around, and to advocate for, recognizing, facilitating and networking diaconal action. In view of the 100th anniversary of VEDD in 2013 and the upcoming 500th anniversary of the Reformation in 2017, the general meeting this year will also be an occasion to reflect on what has been accomplished and the future strategies of the church diaconal sector in Germany.

The core topic this year will be the biblical concept of Freedom. In particular, the entire event will focus on the value of spontaneous good works of love toward God and the neighbours developed by Martin Luther.
