ACCOMMODATIONS:
NB
Your room
reservation at Casa Beato Nuno in
Fatima
only covers the days of the course. If you are arriving before or you
need to stay
extra
days,
please
let us know. You will be charged for the extra days as they are not
included in the fee.
The course will take place at the Casa Beato Nuno, a Carmelite residence
for pilgrims to the Shrine of Fatima.
Casa Beato Nuno was established by
then Prior General Kilian Lynch at the suggestion of Sr. Lucia, one of the
three children at the Fatima appearances of Our Lady.
At their meeting in 1950, Sr. Lucia asked Fr. Lynch if the
Carmelites could build something to revive the devotion of the Portuguese
people to Our Lady Mount Carmel.
The house is designed to accommodate
retreats and other religious gatherings. The building includes a large
chapel and several gathering areas in addition to 135 sleeping rooms on
five floors.

WHAT TO

During the three first days we will have reports
to familiarize
ourselves with
our
globalized world. Every participant, individually, per regions or
continents, will
be asked to share
their own
experiences.
We ask that you
bring the material you need
to do
that. These are the questions to be answered:
-
How does globalization have
an
influence on the area where I live?
-
What experiences of Justice and Peace from my area do I know that help
mitigate the influence of globalization?
Please, do not forget this material, very useful for the first days.
A
Bible will be useful as well.
For
the liturgy, we can use some hymns, prayers or texts from your country, in
your own language. Please, bring some with you.
