The International Council of the World Movement of Christian Workers (WMCW) met from July 11 to 15, 2025, at the Savelberg Retreat Centre in Nairobi, Kenya. As usual, the Council meeting was preceded by the Executive Committee meeting, held from July 8 to 10, 2025.
The meeting was marked by three key highlights:
- Deliberations on various topics related to MMTC’s life, such as the realities of member movements, spiritual accompaniment, finances, affiliation of new movements, and more.
- The Eucharistic celebration, led by the international chaplain and animated by members of the Kenyan movement.
- A field visit to one of the grassroots groups in the Diocese of Nairobi, which runs a project transforming collected plastic waste as part of local environmental protection efforts.
