Orthodox Youth Spent Time Together in Cologne
From April 17 to 19, 2026, a youth group from Bad Kissingen was a guest of the Orthodox community (ROCOR) in Cologne. The visit provided an opportunity for personal exchange as well as strengthening the community among the participants. This was reported by ROJ-Cologne on Instagram.
As part of the meeting, the young people undertook joint activities, including walks through the city and a shared evening around a campfire. The focus was on getting to know each other and open dialogue. The shared experiences helped to establish new contacts and deepen existing connections.
Furthermore, the participants attended divine services together and received the Holy Mysteries. The meeting was perceived as spiritually and communally formative. At the same time, it offered the young people the opportunity to consciously deepen their faith through shared experience.
