On September 19, less than a week after visiting Istanbul to meet Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople (the city's former name), I was granted an audience with Pope Francis in Rome. Reformed pastors Michel Kocher and I represented JC2033, taking part in the “Easter together 2025” initiative.

Istanbul, September 14, 2024. A delegation from various movements taking part in the “Easter Together 2025” initiative was received by Patriarch Bartholomew.

On August 31, the “United Beyond Borders” meeting marked a new stage for JC2033 with the official launch of the “Risen! Here we are!”

From September 9 - 11, 2024, the staff of JC2033 International held their annual retreat at the Taizé Community in Burgundy. They were welcomed by its prior, Brother Matthew, who encouraged them to move forward with faith on the road to 2033.
