Together we can draw a distinction!

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace!
Where there is hatred let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.

By this prayer Saint Francis of Assisi expressed his desire to help wherever he can see a need. We hope to follow this wish as a team in 2008 to bless our friends and fellow human beings in places marked by war and conflicts.

Through annual Peace Camps organized by the peace organization „The Frontiers“ you have a possibility to move into regions which are wistful waiting for us. Last year Peace Camps have been extended by Kashmir/ Pakistan and Aceh/ Indonesia. 2008 we want to keep up our already set in work and share our lives once again. We are glad to invite you all around the world and looking forward to have this year once again a highly motivated international team.

Through this info mail we want to encourage you to participate at one of the Peace Camps. Use this summer to gain new experience and win new views. The following information is to give you a better understanding. Please don’t hesitate to contact us for further information.
Thank you for your interest and support!

What is the „Peace Camp“ at all?

“The purpose of Peace Camp is to give young people around the world an opportunity to join together with those living in regions affected by conflicts, natural disasters, and famine. It is our hope that through this program, participants will gain a better un-derstanding of the love of God and love of others.” What are we going to do during this Camp?
