L’arche communities
|
L’Arche is an international Christian community, welcoming people from all spiritual paths to share the daily life of those with an intellectual disability, in the spirit of the Beatitudes. L’Arche believes in the dignity of every person.
Central to this life is relationship built on trust, compassion, forgiveness and an openness to love. L’Arche takes the Beatitudes as foundational and a source of life. They seek to help each other grow and develop towards their full potential. They do this by recognising and responding to the gifts of each person and creating a community of hope where true autonomy can exist and inter-dependency can be encouraged.
