THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY OUT

TO
SMILE
AGAIN

ALIVE

We are alive thanks
to love.

Behind every story is a person who found themselves. We'll tell you a few, because hope needs to be told.

● WHO WE ARE

Here, you're not a case to be managed: you're a person to be rediscovered. At Cenacolo, you'll find a family that puts you back at the center of things with the work of their hands, the strength of friendship, the rediscovery of faith, and the courage to start over, one day at a time.

BOYS AND GIRLS

After being resurrected to new life, there are those who choose to go home and bring hope to the world and those who choose to remain in the Community to welcome those who arrive without.

FAMILIES

The families who choose to live in the Cenacle are a visible sign that love can heal every wound and that it is possible to begin dreaming again together with God.

CONSECRATED

Consecrated persons are a sign of God who lives with simplicity in daily life, drawing close to the wounds of their brothers and sisters in whom they recognize the flesh of Jesus.

The path to yourself

No shortcuts, no easy promises. Just three steps, your time, and someone to walk with you all the way.

01
Reception

You arrive just as you are, with all your weight. We welcome you, listen to you, and finally give you time to breathe. No judgment, promise.

02
On the way

Wake up early and get your hands dirty: work, groups, true friendships, and that good work that, day after day, restores order within you through a journey of faith.

03
Back in the world

Home, work, loved ones, dreams. We'll accompany you beyond the gate, one step at a time, without letting go of your hand when it matters most.

PROVIDENCE

Which translated means "we don't go to the supermarket to do the shopping." "The first providence is our hands." The first skill young people must learn is that of living. By working, they rebuild their willpower, they learn their responsibility. They regain self-confidence, discover their capacity for sacrifice, commitment, and perseverance. They discover that they are enriched not so much by what they do, but by how they do it.

IN THE WORLD

Giving, sharing, leaving behind, and leaving one's lands become true joy, missionary joy, a joy born from freely giving in the love and service that one has freely received from the love of God and one's brothers. 

OUR DAY

You certainly don't get bored; most of the time you get to the evening without realizing it, happy to no longer be alone, to sit at the table, to chat with friends and to rest. 

"...it certainly wasn't my idea. What is happening, the history we are living through, couldn't have arisen from the ideas or intuitions of a poor woman like me."
