Comunidad de Reflexión y Espiritualidad Ecológica Cooperation Circle started as a virtual space (a WhatsApp group) to share thoughts and reflect together. After a year keeping together through this remote communication, this international, interdisciplinary and intercultural group had their first face-to-face meeting for International Day of Peace, September 21, 2018. The name of CREES “Community of Reflection and Ecological” was elected by vote, and since then, they meet once a month with the goal of helping to build Peace in present humanity. Members share their art, poetry and reflections and they are open to different perspectives in all these fields. They have also had special activities offering aid to Venezuelan’s migrants who have arrived in Ecuador, victims of the humanitarian crisis that exists in their brother country. Members of CREE plan to have an Intercultural and Interreligious Encounter in Ecuador.

The Mission and Challenges Facing the Ecumenical Fraternity Today

Latin America and the Caribbean
Community Building
Environment
Interfaith and Intercultural Dialogue
Peacebuilding and Conflict Transformation

The context we live in today is very different from that of the 20th century, which was when the Fraternity was born. The world has changed, new technologies have been imposed, traditional values have been questioned, violence and corruption stalk us. But we never lost faith, and we continue to bring our hearts to any kind of era that the world is putting to.
