With the positive attitude suggested by the title above, we gathered in Marosvásárhely/Târgu Mureș on November 17, 2023. The two-day mental health training - organized by ICUUW in collaboration with UNOSZ (Unitarian Women’s Association of Romania) thanks to a generous grant from the UU Funding Program - provided very meaningful and spiritual experiences.

A well-known symbol of UNOSZ, the Unitarian Women’s Association of Romania, is the “wandering tablecloth.” As the name indicates, the tablecloth “wanders” from one place to the next: from the site of the UNOSZ annual meeting and conference one year to the location of the following year’s event. The tablecloth is composed of embroidered triangles sewn together, made by and representing each local women’s association. Today, the tablecloth contains approximately 120 triangles.

29 October 2020

On Saturday, October 17, more than 100 people participated in the first virtual service organized by UNOSZ, the Unitarian Women’s Association of Romania, in collaboration with ICUUW. This special occasion was a wonderful testimony to the strong ongoing collaboration between ICUUW and UNOSZ.

The virtual event on Zoom, moderated by Rev. Júlia Jobbágy, drew people from all over the world, from Hungary to England to the United States; in several village churches across Transylvania, the service was projected onto big screens. The service was conducted in Hungarian, but the English translations of the texts were provided in a chat box.

Reflections on Domestic Violence Prevention Training in Transylvania

Details
By Enikő Benedek, Romania
14 January 2020

I took part in a program focusing on awareness and prevention of domestic violence, organized by the UNOSZ and jointly sponsored by the Gábor Bethlen Fund and the ICUUW, November 29-December 1, 2019.

Why did I attend this seminar focusing on such a sensitive issue? Obviously, I have heard much about intimate partner violence. We all carry with us family patterns. I must admit that in my childhood I fought with those the same age as I. I slapped a boy when I was a university student, who dared grope me in a crowded bus. An angry person is capable of everything: slap, strike, scratch, bite, and even kill.

Even though I was able to attend only one leadership training, it was very important to me.

I came to the leadership session for two reasons: as a university student, I became more acquainted with the term “leadership,” and I was hoping to deepen my understanding and gain more practical skills; and secondly, I was in need of a Christian community that could thaw my spiritual ice age.
