Föreningen

Det första lilla centret

Föreningen ”De två hjärtanas hem”

De två hjärtanas hem är en ideell förening, formellt bildad den 16 oktober 2024, inspirerad av Vassula Rydéns vision att skapa ekumeniska platser för bön, studium och försoning mellan kristna.

Under sin livstid uppmuntrade Vassula grundandet av sådana center, ägnade åt kristen enhet och bön. Vårt initiativ i Sverige fortsätter denna inspiration i mindre, lokal skala.

Föreningen verkar självständigt och bär fullt juridiskt och ekonomiskt ansvar för sin egen verksamhet.

The center is located on private land. It functions on this property as an independent nonprofit association renting its premises from the landowners. The association form reflects that it does not own the land or buildings, ensuring clear separation between the nonprofit’s operations and private ownership.

 

While spiritually indebted to  Vassula Rydén’s writings and by the ecumenical ideals expressed in her correspondence and public talks, Home of the Two Hearts is not part of, nor officially affiliated with, any organization or foundation using the names True Life in God or TLIG.

It acts autonomously, with respect for all Christian traditions, in the same spirit of unity and prayer that Vassula promoted.

Purpose and Facilities

The association’s purpose is simply to provide an open and peaceful environment for reading, prayer, and dialogue among Christians.

Its future planned facilities include renting a library, a conference room, and a helping in the large garden project designed as a place of reflection welcoming people from all Christian traditions.

The association will independently rent and manage a 70 m² building that will be used for:

  •  film screenings and educational lectures,
  • retreats and days of reflection,
  • a small café and reading room, and
  • a temporary meditation space for prayer.

The association operates entirely on its own initiative and under its own responsibility, without any organizational, legal, or financial connection to the Foundation for True Life in God or any other entity.

A key project for next year (2026) is to establish some simple facilities and to continue the large garden — a vision close to Vassula’s heart, mentioned in her letters to her readers.

Cooperation and Activities

The association cooperates informally with Swedish ecumenical groups that share a commitment to Christian unity and prayer. A weekly prayer group with members from the Lutheran and Catholic tradition and plays a vital role in the center’s life.
