Retraite – La contemplation un chemin d’ancrage et d’ouverture Perspective chrétien sur la non-dualité En collaboration avec inTOUCH , la Chapelle pour l’Europe vous invite à cinq jours de ressourcement du 4 au 8 septembre 2024 au centre spirituel La Cova à Manresa en Catalogne, Espagne. Dans cette petite ville, près de Montserrat, Ignace de Loyola passa une période d’une importance capitale pour sa vie et celle de beaucoup d’autres. Son lieu de prière privilégié était la cova, une cavité au-dessus de la rivière Cardoner ; c’est à cet endroit qu’a été construit l’actuel centre de spiritualité. Dans ce lieu symbolique et porteur, Javier Melloni nous accompagnera dans une retraite-formation contemplative qui se déroulera en français et nous invitera à cheminer d’une existence trépidante, absente et distraite, vers une vie ancrée dans le moment présent, partout où nous nous trouvons. Il s’agit de passer du repli à l’ouverture, du bruit au silence, de la dispersion à l’attention, de la résistance à l’abandon, du savoir au non-savoir, du faire à l’être … La session, essentiellement en silence, sera rythmée par du travail corporel, intellectuel et spirituel, reflétant l’expérience de l’accompagnateur lui-même. Javier Melloni se tournera également vers l’héritage de diverses traditions […]

Come join our first Movie Night of the semester with the refreshing-packed-with-emotions film Inside Out . English with French subtitles. This 2015 Pixar movie takes us to the mind of an 11 year-old girl, Riley, where emotions take center stage. The film's unique concept and stunning animation are matched by its heartfelt storytelling. Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust, each with their own distinct personalities, guide us through Riley's emotional landscape as she navigates a life-changing move. The film deftly balances humor and poignancy, exploring complex themes of loss, change, and the importance of embracing all emotions. Inside Out is a must-see for all ages, a touching reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always a glimmer of hope.

The Chapel for Europe together with the European Laudato Si’ Alliance (ELSiA), invites you to the Vernissage of the art exhibition “Burnt Landscapes”, paintings by Claire Forgeot on Tuesday, 1 October at 19:00 at the Chapel. The Chapel for Europe is delighted to host the paintings by Claire Forgeot and to have her here to tell us more about them. This opportunity has been offered to us by the European Laudato Si' Alliance (ELSia), which wanted to organize an event in Brussels to celebrate the end of the Creation Season, combining the exhibition of the French painter, whose work are inspired by the experience of burnt landscapes, with a half-day conference the following morning on the theme of water. Since 2004, after the shock of witnessing the burning of a mountain slope on a Greek island, Claire Forgeot has been working on the traces of fire in the landscape. Initially, her focus was on calcined black and its relationship to color. Then she experimented with the fire itself by scarifying paper. Later, in search of a metaphorical herbarium, she collected plants from gardens and trees found in the landscapes of France and Greece. When talking about her work, the image […]

Together with ELSiA, the Chapel for Europe invites you to the conference "Water: too much, too little" on Wednesday, 2 October 2024 from 9:30 to 12:30. Climate change increases the intensity of weather phenomena. This is most evident in the case of the element without which life on our planet is impossible: water. Floods and water shortages often occur in the same area at different times of the year. Floods endanger residential areas and submerge agricultural land for long periods. Extreme water shortages make farming difficult, if not impossible, in areas that were considered the “vegetable garden of Europe” just a few decades ago. Prolonged drought is causing forest fires in southern Europe to occur earlier in the year, with devastating consequences. The natural habitat of rivers and the biodiversity of life in and around them are in danger of being lost. Conflicts of interest over water are increasing in Europe – between agriculture and industry, between drinking water supply and energy production, between transport and housing. As part of the ‘Season of Creation‘, which ends on 4 October, the the European Laudato Si’ Alliance (ELSiA) wants to look at how we manage water from different perspectives: We will begin […]
