The annual conference will take place in Spain (exact location to be advised) from 2 to 5 May 2013.

We look forward to seeing representation from all groups.

On Saturday afternoon we were invited to visit the Dachau Concentration Camp with is now a memorial.   Some thought this might be too distressing for them so spent the afternoon in the ancient town of Dachau.   In the early evening we all visited Dachau castle and then were welcomed to the church.   The photograph below was taken on the steps of the church before entering and shows some of those who are attending the Conference

We were very privileged to have Prof. Dr Heribert Franz Köck with us during the conference from Friday until Saturday afternoon.  This meant  that we were able to engage in informal discussion with him and benefit from his wealth of knowledge of his subject.

The subject of the study day was

Freedom of the Church, religious freedom of the individual and the value systemof the EU.  Who is protecting whom from whom?   (DE - EN - FR - ES)

Renate Bauer and Sylvia Mattdeldt-Kloth joined Prof Dr Köck for a question and answer session where experiences from across Europe were shared.
