E+ Foundation

Our mission

The mission of the foundation is to promote the Christian roots of Europe by building cooperation of various communities for the benefit of youth and families.

This is accomplished especially by strengthening cooperation between Christian artists, communities and clergy, as well as catechists and local government employees in Poland and Europe.

Projects

1. Qultural Confirmation

is a formula for evangelistic meetings between artists and young people preparing for the sacrament of Confirmation. The program is gaining the approval and blessing of several bishops; our dream is that one day it could include all dioceses and deaneries in Poland.

The program was designed to complement the annual cycle of catechesis which prepares young people for the sacrament of Confirmation. It is implemented by means of concerts of Christian music and testimonies in Houses of Culture, arranged in cooperation with local communities. Meetings outside of a church setting are an opportunity to confirm that life and faith are not two separate worlds.

As we read in the Instruction for Clergy, The Pastoral Conversion of the Parish community in the Service of the Evangelising Mission of the Church, “The fruitful and creative encounter between the Gospel and the culture leads to true progress (…) The renewal of evangelisation requires a new approach with diverse pastoral initiatives, so that the Word of God and the sacramental life can reach everyone in a way that is coherent with their state in life.”

The aim of this project is to retain young people in the Church by inviting them to further formation in youth communities, i.e. Poland’s Oasis Youth Movement, Scouts of Europe, Catholic Youth Association, Postcresima, etc. The project leads to the integration of artists, communities and clergy, as well as catechists and employees of Houses of Culture for the benefit of young people.

2. The School of Management

These are monthly meetings on line (via Zoom) with specialists who promote a variety of Christian music in Poland and beyond. The task of the project is to create a community of support for artists.

We want to collectively seek people of expertise so that our music reaches the widest possible audience, on equal terms with popular music, as is the case in the USA. We intend to invite specialists in social media, audio video production, managers, streaming and image specialists, lawyers, music producers, etc.

3. Festival

Our dream is to launch this project with a large international festival which will be an opportunity to meet, integrate and build cooperation between communities, formation and spiritual development environments, and youth and families in different parts of Europe. We would also like to have meetings with people who are still looking for their way in life and who look at the values, such as the Decalogue, from a distance. We would like to show the resources that Christian communities have to offer diverse audiences who are not affiliated with any particular Church. All is based on good music and modern, attractive technologies situated in a suitable stadium-type facility with active participation of the media.
