The XIII Symposium in Rome presented the
Symposium EMCAPP as a vibrant worldwide move-
ment. Such meetings provide a tremendous
opportunity for participants to develop pro-
fessional and personal relations within the
Movement, which are very helpful and have
a great positive impact on our practical work
back in our home countries. Moreover, the
discussions became more practice-oriented,
that encourages participants to have more
workshops and have more time for profes-
sional dialogue. I would also like to note a
remarkable increase in the general level of
lecturing and discussion. Finally, the Eternal
City with its inspiring atmosphere of Renais-
sance humanism seems to be a perfect place
for the collaborative work in pursuit of better
understanding of human nature.

„EMCAPP is a place where science and faith meet. I had great time meeting Christians from diffe-
rent parts of the world who make there goal in life to beautifully orchestrate faith and Psychology.
Rome was filed with inspiring lectures, challenging questions, good food and relaxing atmosphere.

The EMCAPP Symposium in Rome was
for me an important event, associated with
a lot of various impressions. The treasuries
of history, architecture, history of Christia-
nity, masterpieces of art in the “Eternal
City” were for me like a cultural waterfall,
enriching my soul. The friendly atmosphe-
re (usual for our meetings) at the Symposi-
um and communication with friends from
many countries was giving me hope, that
Christian psychology can make its contri-
bution to uniting people and understan-
ding in the changing and complicated con-
temporary situation. Our mutual prayer
for peace was sincere and really important.
I was very glad to meet new people, whom
I did not know before. And I missed greatly
our usual participants and friends from
Poland, who did not come to this meeting.
I am very thankful to Francesco Cutino
who helped to organize our meeting in
Rome.
