Covid-19 Update: Central Europe

As of 27^th March 2020

In CEU we have three countries (Germany, Hungary and Austria) with varying degrees of stringency in their rules concerning the disease. However, everybody is restricted in going out which is a challenge, not just for practical issues and for our equanimity, but also for our ministry. The spiritual centre Forrás in Hungary streams their programs on Facebook. Some rscj who cannot do their normal work help at Crisis Hotlines.
