The Meditation Centre at Schiphol cannot function without its volunteers. Every year in May the board and the chaplains offer them a day away from the hastiness of the airport to relax and enjoy themselves. On May 15th, a sunny Amsterdam welcomed 30 participants – among them partners and other invitees. Coffee and pastries were served in the Museum ‘Ons' lieve Heer op Solder’, a former hidden Catholic Church. A precious example of the two centuries of continuation of the celebration of the Eucharist in Amsterdam during the Protestant domination of the capital. Lunch was served by the students of the ROC in their café ‘Rocks’, an impressive and high-quality meal, that touched tongues and hearts. A canal tour and closing drinks made the day memorable for all.
The Meditation Centre in Schiphol is the respectful and attractive place because of the presence and generous care of our volunteers. We cannot value them enough.
