All along the week of the International Eucharistic Congress we would like to bring the Congress to the people as close as possible. Therefore, mission stages will be set up in Széll Kálmán Square and Örs vezér Square, where, anyone passing by can be part of concerts, testimonies, evangelistic plays throughout the week from Monday to Friday, from early afternoon to evening.
Right next to the stage in the tent “Meghallgatlak“ (“I’m here to listen”) there is a way for in-depth spiritual conversations, while around the stage our volunteers familiarise you with Christianity through personal informal talks.
Christian music bands are announced to be on stage, featuring: Kaláka, Makám, Jonatán Andelic, Golgota Gospel Choir, László Csiszér, Eucharist, Béla Pintér, Szabad-ON, Ferenc Flach…and others. Moreover, well-known artists such as János Lackfi, poet, and Soma Zámbori, actor are going to enrich the performances. Every day between 4 and 5 p.m. children’s programs will be on show.
Many of our guests will also appear on stage to share their testimonies on faith. Just to sample a few….
